Zinc(ii) complexes of tetrapodal ligands derived from tetra-substituted 1,n-diaminoalcohols
Abstract
Dinuclear zinc(II) complexes have been prepared from one non-symmetric and two symmetric compartmental ligands in which the pendant arms, bearing pyridyl and phenolic functions, are bridged by spacers derived from 1,n-diaminoalcohols. The X-ray crystal structures of four complexes [Zn2L1(OAc)](ClO4)2·CH3OH (1a), [Zn2L1(OAc)](BPh4)2·6H2O (2a), [Zn2L2(OAc)](PF6)2 (4a) and [Zn2L3(OAc)] ·2.5H2O·1.5CH3OH (8a) are reported.
