Abstract

A novel centrosymmetric dinuclear zinc(II) complex, [Zn2L2], was prepared from 2-bromo-6-[(3-cyclohexylaminopropylimino)methyl]phenol (H2L), 3,5-dichlorosalicylaldehyde, and zinc acetate under solvolthermal conditions. There occurs a rarely-seen 1,3-hydride shift reaction during the process. Structure of [Zn2L2] has been characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, and single crystal X-ray diffraction (CIF file CCDC no. 956057). The Zn⋯Zn separation is 3.163(1)°. Each Zn atom in the complex is in a trigonal-bipyramidal coordination. Thermal stability and fluorescence property of [Zn2L2] were studied. The complex displays intraligand π-π* fluorescence and can potentially serve as photoactive material.
