Abstract:The isomerism of zinc complex [Zn(L)2]2+ with tridentate ligand L having acetamide and pyridine groups on each side of the central amino- nitrogen atom has been investigated by DFT calculations, liquid state NMR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. DFT was used for obtaining the ensembles of low-energy conformers of L and [Zn(L)2]2+ and for the calculation of NMR parameters for all conformers. For all generated conformers of L and [Zn(L)2]2+, the Mean Absolute Error [MAE(conf)] was tested as a structural qual… Show more
