Two novel dinuclear copper(II) complexes of formulae [Cu2(tren)2(bpda)](ClO4)4 (2) and [Cu2(tren)2(tpda)](ClO4)4 (3) containing the tripodal tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (tren) terminal ligand and the 4,4′-biphenylenediamine (bpda) and 4,4″-p-terphenylenediamine (tpda) bridging ligands have been synthesized and structurally, spectroscopically, and magnetically characterized. Their experimentally available electronic spectroscopic and magnetic properties have been reasonably reproduced by DFT and TDDFT calculations. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of 2 shows the presence of dicopper(II) cations where the bpda bridging ligand adopts a bismonodentate coordination mode toward two [Cu(tren)]2+ units with an overall non-planar, orthogonal anti configuration of the N–Cu–N threefold axis of the trigonal bipyramidal CuII ions and the biphenylene group. The electronic absorption spectra of 2 and 3 in acetonitrile reveal the presence of four moderately weak d–d transitions characteristic of a slightly distorted trigonal bipyramid stereochemistry of the CuII ions. TDDFT calculations on 2 identify these transitions as those taking place between the four lower-lying, doubly occupied a2 (dyz)2, b2 (dxz)2, b1 (dxy)2, and a1 (dx2-y2dx2-y2)2 orbitals and the upper, singly occupied a1 (dz2dz2)1 orbital of each trigonal bipyramidal CuII ion. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements of 2 and 3 show the occurrence of moderate (J = −8.5 cm−1) to weak intramolecular antiferromagnetic couplings (J = −2.0 cm–1) [H = −JS1·S2 with S1 = S2 = SCu = ½] inspite of the relatively large copper–copper separation across the para-substituted biphenylene- (r = 12.3 Å) and terphenylenediamine (r = 16.4 Å) bridges, respectively. DFT calculations on 2 and 3 support the occurrence of a spin polarization mechanism for the propagation of the exchange interaction between the two unpaired electrons occupying the dz2dz2 orbital of each trigonal bipyramidal CuII ion through the predominantly π-type orbital pathway of the oligo-p-phenylenediamine bridges, as reported earlier for the parent compound [Cu2(tren)2(ppda)](ClO4)4·2H2O (1) with the 1,4-phenylenediamine (ppda) bridging ligand. Finally, a rather slow exponential decay of the antiferromagnetic coupling (–J) with the number of phenylene repeat units, –(C6H4)n– (n = 1–3), has been found both experimentally and theoretically along this series of oligo-p-phenylenediamine-bridged dicopper(II) complexes. These results further support the ability of linear π-conjugated oligo-p-phenylene spacers to transmit the exchange interaction between the unpaired electrons of the two CuII centers with intermetallic distances in the range of 7.5–16.4 Å.
The novel series of dinuclear tris(2-aminoethyl)aminecopper(II) complexes with oligo-p-phenylenediamine bridging ligands (1–3) shows a moderate to weak intramolecular antiferromagnetic coupling (−J = 2.0–51.4 cm−1), in spite of the relatively large intermetallic distance (r = 7.5–16.4 Å), as a result of the spin density alternation in the π-conjugated bond system of the oligophenylene spacers with para-substitution pattern (spin polarization mechanism).Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
