Abstract

A mononuclear complex [CuL] (1), a binuclear complex [Cu2LCl2(H2O)] (2), a trinuclear complex [Cu3L2](ClO4)2 (3) involving o-phenylenediamine and salicylaldehyde and another binuclear complex of a tridentate ligand (H2L1) [Cu2L 12 ](CH3COO)2 (4) involving o-phenylenediamine and diacetylmonoxime have been synthesized, where H2L = N,N′-o-phenylenebis(salicylideneimine) and H2L1 = 3-(2-aminophenylimino)butan-2-one oxime. All the complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, spectral and magnetic studies. The binuclear complex (2) was characterized structurally where the two Cu(II) centers are connected via an oxygen-bridged arrangement.
