One-dimensional copper(II) complex containing alternate single and double end-on azide ligands: Crystal structure and magnetic characterization

A novel one-dimensional azido-bridged coordination polymer of formula [Cu2(L)2(H2O)(N3)4]n (1) has been synthesized and characterized crystallographically and magnetically, where L is 5-methylpyrimidin-2-amine. Complex 1 consists of 1D chain in which the Cu(II) ions with a square pyramidal geometry are alternately bridged by asymmetric single and symmetric double end-on (EO) azido ligands. Magnetic analysis reveals that the dominating ferromagnetic interaction is mediated by the symmetric double azido bridge with the exchange parameter J = 55.17 cm−1.
