Cu(ii) 3,5-diiodosalicylate complexes: precursor-dependent formation of mono-, di-, tri- and tetranuclear compounds and 1D coordination polymers†
Abstract
Reactions of CuCl2·2H2O or Cu(NO3)2·6H2O with 3,5-diiodosalicylic acid (DISA) in the presence of different amines result in structurally diverse products. Overall, we isolated 14 complexes of various nuclearity (1, 2, 3 and 4, as well as 1D coordination polymers), all characterized by X-ray diffraction. Magnetic properties were studied for several representatives of this class.
