Abstract

A pair of structurally similar thiocyanato-bridged dinuclear Cu(II) complexes derived from the Schiff bases 2,4-dibromo-6-[(2-diethylaminoethylimino)methyl]phenol and 4-nitro-2-[(2-ethylaminoethylimino)methyl]phenol has been prepared and characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. Each Cu atom is five-coordinate in a square-pyramidal geometry, with one O and two N atoms of one Schiff base ligand and one N atom of a bridging thiocyanate ligand defining the basal plane, and with one terminal S atom of another bridging thiocyanate ligand occupying the apical position. Antimicrobial activities of the Schiff bases and the two complexes have been tested.
