Cu(II) – Schiff base complexes containing anthranilic acid and aldoses (sugars) as part of the base were prepared and characterized by microanalytical, thermogravimetric, magnetic, and spectroscopic data. The complexes are four-coordinate, anhydrous, and ML2 type. The electron paramagnetic resonance spectral lines exhibited rhombic distortion from axial symmetry in the square-planar Cu(II) complexes with [Formula: see text] The complexes were found to be active against kaolin paw oedema and standard strains of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Two new dinuclear bis(μ2-phenoxo)-bridged copper(ii) complexes [Cu(NCS)L1]2 (1) and [Cu(NCS)L2]2 (2) have been synthesized using two tridentate NNO-donor Schiff-base ligands, L1H (Me2N(CH2)3N=CHC6H3(OMe)(OH)) and L2H (Me2N(CH2)3N=C(CH3)C6H4(OH)), respectively. They have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR, UV-visible, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. X-Ray single-crystal structures reveal a central Cu2O2 core in each complex with an isothiocyanate ligand coordinated terminally to each metal centre. The coordination environments around the CuII ions in 1 and 2 are a distorted trigonal bipyramid and a quasi-regular square pyramid, respectively, with significant differences in the Cu–O–Cu bridging angles (100.22(5)° for 1 and 95.64(7)° for 2). Although both CuII dimers present intradimer antiferromagnetic exchange interactions, the magnitudes of the coupling constants in 1 and 2 (J = –119(1) and –0.361(3) cm–1, respectively) are quite different as a result of the different coordination geometries and Cu–O–Cu bridging angles. Both complexes act as promising catalysts or catalyst precursors for the efficient peroxidative oxidation of cycloalkanes (cyclohexane and cycloheptane) to the corresponding cyclic alcohols and ketones, with maximum overall yields of 53% and 56% for 1 and 2, respectively.

As a result of the Schiff base condensation the gadolinium macroacyclic and macrobicyclic Schiff base complexes have been synthesized and investigated by infrared spectroscopy (IR) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). Both electron ionization and electron spray Molecular Spectroscopy spectra confirmed the [1:1] proportion of a ligand to metal in gadolinium macrocyclic and mocrobicyclic Schiff base complex samples. The thermogravimetrydifferential thermal analysis (TG-DTA) indicated the presence of two water molecules in the innersphere of the macrobicyclic complex and confirmed no water coordination of the metal ion in the macroacyclic complex. The temperature dependence of the integrated intensity of the EPR spectra enabled the magnetic interactions in the spin system of these compounds to be revealed.

The preparation and X-ray and spectroscopic studies of the title copper(II) complex, [Cu(C12H8N3O2)(CN)(H2O)], are reported. The CuIIcation is five-coordinated, forming a distorted square-planar pyramid with an Addison τ parameter of 0.14. The UV–vis spectrum shows ad–dtransition of the CuIIcentre at 638 nm, and the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrum confirms that the CuIIcation has an axial symmetry coordination and that the unpaired electrons occupy thedx2–y2orbital. Cyclic voltammetric studies show two irreversible oxidation and reduction peaks.

Square-planar complexes are commonly formed by transition metal ions having ad8electron configuration. Planar cyanometallate anions have been used extensively as design elements in supramolecular coordination systems. In particular, square-planar tetracyanometallate(II) ions,i.e.[M(CN)4]2−(MII= Ni, Pd or Pt), are used as good building blocks for bimetallic Hofmann-type assemblies and their analogues. Square-planar tetracyanonickellate(II) complexes have been extensively developed withN-donor groups as additional co-ligands, but studies of these systems usingO-donor ligands are scarce. A new cyanide-bridged CuII–NiIIheterometallic compound, poly[[diaquatetra-μ2-cyanido-κ8C:N-nickel(II)copper(II)] monohydrate], {[CuIINiII(CN)4(H2O)2]·H2O}n, has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction analyses, vibrational spectroscopy (FT–IR), thermal analysis, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and magnetic moment measurements. The structural analysis revealed that it has a two-dimensional grid-like structure built up of cationic [Cu(H2O)2]2+and anionic [Ni(CN)4]2−units connected through bridging cyanide ligands. The overall three-dimensional supramolecular network is expanded by a combination of interlayer O—H...N and intralayer O—H...O hydrogen-bond interactions. The first decomposition reactions take place at 335 K under a static air atmosphere, which illustrates the existence of guest water molecules in the interlayer spaces. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrum confirms that the CuIIcation has an axial coordination symmetry and that the unpaired electrons occupy thed_{{{{x}^2}-y^2} orbital. In addition, magnetic investigations showed that antiferromagnetic interactions exist in the CuIIatoms through the diamagnetic [Ni(CN)4]2−ion.
