Abstract

The tridentate Schiff base carboxylate-containing ligand 2-pyridylmethylamino-3-butyric acid (Hpaba) reacts with copper(II) perchlorate to give the one-dimensional chain complex {[Cu(μ-paba)](ClO4)·H2O} n (1). The coordination geometry of each copper(II) ion is best described as a square-plane with two nitrogen atoms and one carboxylate oxygen atom of the ligand, and one carboxylate oxygen atom belong to another ligand. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system P21/c with a = 12.717(2), b = 7.9163(15), c = 14.981(2) Å, β = 111.14(1)°, V = 1406.8(4) Å3, Z = 4. Cyclic voltammogram of 1 undergoes the reversible one-electron oxidation to the Cu(III) and the reversible one-electron reduction to the Cu(I) state.

Graphical Abstract

Crystal structure of 1 reveals a syn-anti carboxylate-bridged one dimensional chain complex in which the coordination environment around each copper(II) ion exhibits a distorted square plane.
