Reaction of metal complexes with carbohydrates: synthesis and characterization of an unprecedentented µ-mannofuranoside binuclear nickel(II) complex containing N-glycosides
Abstract
The X-ray crystal structure of the novel µ-mannofuranoside binuclear nickel(II) complex, µ-Man-[Ni2(MeOH)(N-D-Man2-N,N′-Me2en)]Cl2· MeOH· 5H2O containing three N-glycosides derived from the reaction of D-mannose (D-Man) and N,N′Idimethylethyenediamine (N,N′-Me2en) is reported.
