Abstract
Two novel copper(II) bromide complexes with pyridine containing Schiff base ligands, Cu(pmed)Br2 and Cu(dpmed)Br2 where pmed = N'-((pyridin-2-yl)methylene)ethane-1,2-diamine (pmed) and dpmed = N,Ndiethyl- N'-((pyridin-2-yl)methylene)ethane-1,2-diamine (dpmed) were synthesized and characterized using Xray single crystal structure analysis, optical and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Crystal structural analysis of Cu(pmed)Br2 showed that the copper(II) ion has a distorted square-pyramidal geometry with the trigonality index of τ = 0.35 and two intermolecular hydrogen bonds, which result in the formation of two dimensional networks in the ab plane. On the other hand, Cu(dpmed)Br2 displayed a near square-pyramidal geometry with the value of τ = 0.06. In both compounds, the NNN Schiff base and one Br atom occupy the basal plane, whereas the fifth apical position is occupied by the other Br atom at a greater Cu-Br apical distance. The reported complexes show g⎟⎜ > g⊥ > 2.0023 with a dx2-y2 ground state and a penta-coordinated square pyramidal geometry. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements showed that the developed copper(II) complexes follow the Curie-Weiss law, that is there are no magnetic interactions between the copper(II) ions since the Cu--Cu distance is too far for magnetic contact.
