Synthesis, characterization, structure and DNA binding aspects of a trinuclear copper(II) complex having a Cu3O core

Theoretical and experimental study of the coordination ability of 4,6-dimethylpyrimidinylhydrazone diacetylmonooxime towards Ni(ii), Mn(ii), Fe(iii) and Co(iii) ions

The complexing ability of diacethylmonooxime 4,6-dimethylpyrimidylhydrazone ligand with Ni(ii), Mn(ii), Fe(iii) and Co(iii) salts have been studied.

DNA intercalative trinuclear Cu(ii) complex with new trans axial nitrato ligation as an efficient catalyst for atmospheric CO2 fixation to epoxides

A trinuclear octahedral Cu^II complex was synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies and behaved as a catalyst for CO₂ fixation to epoxide and as a DNA binder.

Hexanuclear Cu3O-3Cu triazole-based units as novel core motifs for high nuclearity copper(ii) frameworks

The asymmetric 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-triazole ligand H₂V (5-amino-3-picolinamido-1,2,4-triazole) by reaction with an excess of Cu(ii) perchlorate (Cu : H₂V being 12 : 1) has produced a novel hexanuclear {Cu₆(μ₃-O/H)(HV/V)₃} fragment, with one triangular Cu₃(μ₃-O/H) group connected to three peripheral single Cu(ii) ions through a cis-cis-trans bridging mode of the ligand, which is the building block of the three structures described here: one hexanuclear, [Cu₆(μ₃-O)(HV)₃(ClO₄)₇(H₂O)₉]·8H₂O (1), one dodecanuclear, [Cu₁₂(μ₃-O)₂(V)₆(ClO₄)₅(H₂O)₁₈](ClO₄)₃·6H₂O (2), and one tetradecanuclear 1D-polymer, {[Cu₁₄(μ₃-OH)₂(V)₆(HV)(ClO₄)₁₁(H₂O)₂₀](ClO₄)₂·14H₂O} _n (3), the last two containing hexanuclear subunits linked by perchlorato bridges. The Cu-Cu av. intra-triangle distance is 3.352(2) Å and the Cu(central)-Cu(bridged external) av. distance is 5.338(3) Å. The magnetic properties of the hexanuclear "Cu₃O-3Cu" cluster have been studied, resulting as best fit parameters: g = 2.18(1), J(intra-triangle) = -247.0(1) cm^-1 and j(central Cu^II - external Cu^II) = -5.15(2) cm^-1.
