Synthesis and characterization of a novel chloro-bridged bis cadmium(II) complex with bis(2-pyridylamethyl)amino-4-butyric acid

摘要

The reaction of CdCl_2 with bis(2-pyridylamethyl)amino-4-butyric acid (Hpmab) leads to the formation of binuclear complex [(Hpmab)(Cl)Cd~II(mu-Cl)_2Cd~II(Cl)(Hpmab)] (1).Complex 1 can be regarded as two distorted octanhedcrons sharing the basal edge that contain the bridging chloro ligands,in each of which resides at a center of inversion.Cyclic voltammetry of 1 gives one oxidation and two reduced processes.
