Abstract

A new binuclear copper complex [CuLCl2]2, [L = 1-(p-tolylsulfonyl)-1,4,7- triazacyclononane], has been synthesized and structured as well as magnetically characterized. In the complex, each copper(II) atom is located in the center of a distorted square pyramidal configuration of five coordinating atoms (two nitrogen atom and three chlorine atom). Two copper(II) atoms were bridged by two chlorine anions (Cl1 and Cl1a). The distance between two copper(II) atoms is 3.483 Å. An antiferromagnetic exchange coupling effect exists in the complex.
