Abstract

Two new Cu(II) complexes, [Cu(L22py)Cl]ClO4 (1), Cu(L22pysa) (2), {L22py = N-(2-pyridylmethyl)-N-(2-aminoethyl)-1,2-diaminoethane, were prepared through the reaction of suitable metal ion salts, L22py, and salicylaldehyde in the presence of NaClO4. The ligands were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and 13C and 1H NMR analysis. Additionally, X-ray crystal structure analysis was performed for complex 1. The X-ray study revealed that the Cu(II) ion exhibits a square configuration.
