The reaction of N,N′-diisopropyl-2-amino-4-iminopent-2-ene (nacnaci-PrH, 1) either with CuOt-Bu or with a mixture of mesityl copper and 10% CuOt-Bu afforded, in the presence of PPh3, CN(C6Me2H3), or MeCN, the Lewis base coordinated complexes nacnaci-PrCuPPh3·0.5 C6H14 (2), nacnaci-PrCuCN(C6Me2H3) (3), and nacnaci-PrCu(NCMe) (4). Compounds 2, 3, and 4 were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Compound 4 afforded two species in deuterated benzene in a 2:1 ratio, which were assigned to {nacnaci-PrCu}2(μ-NCMe) and nacnaci-PrCuNCMe (4). Upon addition of 5 equiv. of MeCN, the two sets collapsed into that of 4. No copper complexes were formed in the presence of styrene, stilbene, or diphenylacetylene.

1 : 1 adducts of N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine ('tmeda') with copper(1) chloride, bromide and iodide have been synthesized and the structures of the solid iodide and chloride derivatives established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The iodide,(1),is monoclinic, P21/c, a 12.370(5), b 12.119(5), c 15.36(1) �, β 109.16(5)�, Z = 4 dimers; the residual R was 0.067 for 1240 'observed' reflections. The complex is a ��'-diiodobridged dimer (tmeda)CuI2Cu(tmeda); thedistance between the pair of four-coordinate copper atoms is very short [2.566(4) A]. The bromide is isomorphous with the iodide. The chloride, (2), is monoclinic, P21/n, a 14.477(3), b 15.063(3),c 9.326(2) �, β 96.99(2)�, Z = 4 formula units; R was 0.055 for No = 1195. The complex is ionic [Cu(tmeda)2]+ [CuCl2]-.

The crystal structures of the title compounds have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K. Crystal data for (PPh3)2CuBr2Cu(PPh3) (1) show that the crystals are iso-morphous with the previously studied chloro analogue, being monoclinic, P21/c, a 19.390(8), b 9.912(5), c 26.979(9) Ǻ, β 112,33(3)°; R 0.043 for No 3444. Cu( trigonal )- P;Br respectively are 2.191(3); 2.409(2), 2.364(2) Ǻ. Cu(tetrahedral)- P;Br respectively are 2.241(3), 2.249(3); 2.550(2), 2.571(2) Ǻ. Crystals of 'step' [PPh3CuBr]4 (2) are isomorphous with the solvated bromo and unsolvated iodo analogues, being monoclinic, C2/c, a 25.687(10), b 16.084(7), c 17.815(9) Ǻ, β 110.92(3)°; R 0.072 for No 3055. Cu( trigonal )- P;Br respectively are 2.206(5); 2.371(3), 2.427(2) Ǻ. Cu(tetrahedral)- P;Br are 2.207(4); 2.446(2), 2.676(3), 2.515(3) Ǻ.

The crystal structures of [Cu(Pme3)4]X (X = Cl , Br, I) and of [M(PPh3)4] [PF6] (M = Cu, Ag) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 295 K. The former compounds contain nearly tetrahedral [Cu(PMe3)4]+ ions on sites of m symmetry with mean Cu-P bond lengths of 2.270, 2.271 and 2.278 Ǻ for X = Cl , Br and I respectively. The latter compounds contain [M(PPh3)4]+ ions on sites of 3 symmetry. In the M =Ag complex the coordination environment is close to tetrahedral, but in the M =Cu complex the length of the axial Cu-P bond [2.465(2)Ǻ] is significantly shorter than that of the off-axis bonds [2.566(2)Ǻ]. Possible reasons for this are discussed.

A number of 1 : 1 silver(1) halide/nitrogen base adducts, [ LAgX ], have been synthesized by recrystallization of the parent silver(I) halide from the neat base, and their solid state structures determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and rationalized in terms of the hierarchy of structural types described in the preceding papers based on steric profile of the base. In consequence of increased metal atom size (cf. Cu), a more limited array of structural types is observed.[(pyridine) AgBr,I ] ∞, [(2,4,6-trimethylpyridine) AgCI,Br,I ] ∞ and [( quinaldine ) AgCI,Br ] are 'stair' polymers; [( piperidine ) AgBr,I ]4 and [(2,2,6,6-tetramethyIpiperidine) AgI ]4 are 'cube' tetramers, while [( diethylamine ) AgCI,Br,I ] provide the first complete metal halide series of the novel 'tube' polymer.

We report herein the synthesis and crystal structures of five new homoleptic copper complexes of curcuminoids. The scarcity of reports of homoleptic complex structures of curcuminoids is attributed to the lack of crystallinity of such derivatives, and therefore, their characterization by single crystal X-ray diffraction is rare. The ligand design suppressing the phenolic interaction by esterification or etherification has afforded a significant increase in the number of known crystal structures of homoleptic metal complexes of curcuminoids revealing more favorable crystallinity. The crystal structures of the present new copper complexes show four-fold coordination with a square planar geometry. Two polymorphs were found for DiBncOC-Cu when crystallized from DMF. The characterization of these new complexes was carried out using infrared radiation (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) and the antioxidant and cytotoxic activity of the obtained complexes was evaluated.

Reaction of 2,6-bis[l-phenyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl]pyridine, L, with copper(1) chloride, bromide, and iodide in acetonitrile solution has been shown to yield salts, structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods as [( MeCN ) CuL ]+ [ ClCuCl ]-, (1), [( MeCN ) CuL ]+2 [XCuX2CuX]2-, X = Br (2), I (3) (both isomorphous ), all as yellow needles, and a form of (3), orange blocks, as the hemiacetonitrile solvate, (4), [( MeCN ) CuL ]+2 [IcuI2Cul]2-. MeCN . The same cation is common to all four species, containing four-coordinate copper(r), with L as meso -tridentate ligand; in (4), the most precisely defined example, Cu-N( MeCN ) is 1.919(5) �, the shortest copper(1) acetonitrile distance known, while Cu-N(L) are 2.065(5)-2.073(5) �. The reason for non-formation of species of the type [ LCuX ] appears to lie in the tridentate ligand conformation which permits coordination of acetonitrile but not larger halide species.

The crystal structures of the title compounds have been determined at 295(1) K by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. For [AgI(Et3N)] (1), the unit cell is tetragonal, P42/nmc, a 13.202(6),c 11.654(8) �; the structure was refined to a residual of 0.077 for 589 independent 'observed' reflections, and is isostructural with the 'pseudo-cubane' triethylphosphine and triethylarsineanalogues with two tetrameric units in the cell. For [AgI(2-MeC5H4N)] (2), the cell is orthorhombic,P212121, a 16.63(1), b 10.797(9), c 4.570(4) �, Z 4; a residual of 0.030 was obtained for 770 independent 'observed' reflections. For [AgI(3-MeC5H4N)] (3), the cell is monoclinic, P21/n, a 19.57(2), b 4.633(3), c 9.355(7) �, β 90.85(7)�, Z 4, a residual of 0.038 being obtained for 1382 independent 'observed' reflections. For [AgI(C9H7N)](4), the unit cell is monoclinic, P21/n, a 12.964(9), b 16.84(2), c 4.454(4) �, β 97.10(7)�, Z 4, a residual of 0.040 being obtained for 660 'observed' independent reflections. For compounds (2)-(4), the observed structures are all 'stairpolymers'; the structures of (2) and (3) are quite similar, but that of (4) exhibits significant differences.

The mononuclear adducts chloro - and bromo-pyridinebis (triphenylphosphine)silver have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The two complexes are isomorphous, monoclinic, space group P21 or P21/m, a ≈ 9.8, b ≈ 20.0, c ≈ 9.1 � , β ≈ 97.5�, Z 2; in space group P21/m, they were refined to residuals of 0.038, 0.036 for 2392, 2157 'observed' reflections respectively. No comparable iodide adduct has been isolated. In both structures the silver atom is four-coordinate; Ag-Cl,Br are 2.511(2), 2.629(1) �; Ag-P, 2.472(1), 2.476(1) �, and Ag-N, 2.585(5), 2.570(5) � respectively, the Ag-N distance being longer than Ag-P, indicating very weak coordination of the pyridine.
