Synthesis, structure, spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of (2-amino-4-methylpyrimidine)-(pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylato) copper(II) monohydrate
Özet
The (2-amino-4-methylpyrimidine)-(pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylato)copper(II) monohydrate complex was synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic (IR, UV/Vis, EPR), thermal (TG/DTA) and electrochemical methods. X-ray structural analysis of the title complex revealed that the copper ion can be considered to have two coordination spheres. In the first coordination sphere the copper ion forms distorted square-planar geometry with trans-N2O2 donor set, and also the metal ion is weakly bonded to the amino-nitrogen in the layer over and to the carboxylic oxygen in the layer underneath in the second coordination sphere. The second coordination environment on the copper ion is attributed to pseudo octahedron. The powder EPR spectra of Cu(II) complex at room and liquid nitrogen temperature were recorded. The calculated g and A parameters have indicated that the paramagnetic centre is axially symmetric. The molecular orbital bond coefficients of the Cu(II) ion in d(9) state is also calculated by using EPR and optical absorption parameters. The cyclic voltammogram of the title complex investigated in DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide) solution exhibits only metal centered electroactivity in the potential range -1.25 to 1.5 V versus Ag/AgCl reference electrode.
