Synthesis, structural characterization, and antibacterial activity of a Cu(II) complex, [Cu(CH_3COO) (HL1)H_2O]·H_ 2O

摘要

A new copper(II) complex [Cu(CH_3COO)(HL)H_2O] ·H_2O, (where HL stands for 4-Nitro-2-[N-(2-{dimethylamino} ethyl-N′-methyl)aminomethyl]phenol), was synthesized and characterized by XRD, EPR, UV-Vis, and IR techniques. It crystallized in monoclinic system and P_(21)/c space group. The Cu(II) ion is coordinated by a tridendate HL ligand, an acetate anion, and a water molecule in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. It is paramagnetic and has a potential antibacterial activity.
