Copper(II) compounds of some rigid dinucleating bis-amine– bis-imidazole ligands

The one pot Mannich reaction provides an easy access to a variety of imidazole derivatives, which are formally dinucleating. The Mannich condensation of formaldehyde with some amines and imidazoles rendered three bis-(amine–imidazole) ligands in a simple one pot reaction. Although these ligands are...

Summary:The one pot Mannich reaction provides an easy access to a variety of imidazole derivatives, which are formally dinucleating. The Mannich condensation of formaldehyde with some amines and imidazoles rendered three bis-(amine–imidazole) ligands in a simple one pot reaction. Although these ligands are formally dinucleating, the copper(II) ions are held far apart, as shown by the Xray structures of five copper(II) compounds obtained with these ligands. Consequentially, these copper(II) compounds behave magnetically mononuclear.
