Abstract

Two metallocycles, {Cu₈(bp)₄(OH)₄(H₂O)₄(ClO₄)₄} (1) and {Cu₂₀(bp)₂₀} (2), were afforded by the reactions of the semi-flexible tridentate ligand bis(2-hydroxybenzyl)amine (H₂bp) with Cu(ClO₄)₂·6H₂O and Cu(OAc)₂·H₂O. Complex 1 has a saddle-shaped cyclic structure and complex 2 has a nanosized wheel-shaped structure. The two compounds consist of [Cu(bp)] units.
