The synthesis of the Mannich base N,N′‐tetra(antipyryl‐4‐methyl)‐1,2‐ethanediamine (TAMEN) (1), its crystal structure as well as the synthesis and the crystal structure of the copper complex [Cu(TAMEN)](ClO4)2·H2O·DMF (2) are reported. C50H56N10O4·2C2H5OH (TAMEN·2EtOH) crystallizes with triclinic symmetry, space group $P{\bar 1}$, lattice parameters: a = 877.3(1), b = 1078.1(1), c = 1433.3(2) pm, α = 71.93(1), β = 82.16(1), γ = 84.54(1)° and Z = 1. The copper complex [Cu(TAMEN)](ClO4)2·H2O·DMF also crystallizes with triclinic symmetry, space group $P{\bar 1}$, lattice parameters: a = 1279.2(2), b = 1485.6(2), c = 1513.6(2) pm, α = 98.04(1), β = 101.24(1), γ = 94.66(1)° and Z = 2. The copper(II) atom is six‐coordinate with an elongated pseudo‐octahedral geometry due to a strong Jahn‐Teller effect.
New mixed-ligand complexes, [M 2 (BAMP)(bipy) 2 ][MCl 4 ] 2 , M¼Co þ2 (1), Cu þ2 (2), [M 2 (TAMEN)(bipy) 2 ][MCl 4 ] 2 , M¼Fe þ2 (3), Co 2þ (4), and [Fe 2 (TAMEN)(bipy) 2 ][FeCl 6 ] 2 (5), where BAMP and TAMEN stand for the Mannich bases N,N 0 -bis(antipyryl-4-methylene)-piperazine and N,N 0 -tetra(antipyryl-4-methylene)-1,2-ethane-diamine, respectively, have been obtained and characterized by elemental analyses, conductometric and magnetic susceptibility measurements at room temperature, mass spectrometry, UV-Vis, infrared, and mass spectroscopy, and 1 H NMR spectra for the ligands.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
