N-(2-Hydroxybenzyl)aminopyridines (Li) react with Cu(II) and Pd(II) ions to form complexes in the compositions Cu(Li)2(CH3COO)2 · nH2O (n = 0, 2, 4), Pd(Li)2Cl2 · nC2H5OH (n = 0, 2) and Pd(L2)2Cl2 · 2H2O. In the complexes, the ligands are neutral and monodentate which coordinate through pyridinic nitrogen. Crystal data of the complexes obtained from 2-amino pyridine derivative have pointed such a coordinating route and comparison of the spectral data suggests the validity of similar complexation modes of other analog ligands. Cu(II) complex of N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-2-aminopyridine (L1), [Cu(L1)2(CH3COO)2] has slightly distorted square planar cis-mononuclear structure which is built by two oxygen atoms of two monodentate carboxylic groups disposed in cis-position and two nitrogen atoms of two pyridine rings. The remaining two oxygen atoms of two carboxylic groups form two Cu and H bridges containing cycles which joint at same four coordinated copper(II) ion. IR and electronic spectral data and the magnetic moments as well as the thermogravimetric analyses also specify on mononuclear octahedric structure of complexes [Cu(L2)2(CH3COO)2 · 2H2O] and [Cu(L3)2(CH3COO)2 · 4H2O] where L2 and L3 are N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-2- or 3-aminopyridines, respectively.X-ray analysis for [Pd(L1)2Cl2 · 2C2H5OH] show square planar environment around Pd(II) ion formed by two chlorine atoms in trans position and two nitrogen atoms of pyridine rings. The spectral data indicate structural similarity in the complexes obtained via ligand exchange between PdCl2(PhCN)2 and 3-amino and 4-aminopyridine derivatives.
Graphical abstractN-(2–hydroxybenzyl)aminopyridines (Li) react with Cu(II) and Pd(II) ions as neutral monodentate ligands which coordinate through pyridinic nitrogen. Cu(II) complex of N-(2–hydroxybenzyl)-2-aminopyridine (L1), [Cu(L1)2(CH3COO)2] has slightly distorted square planar cis-mononuclear structure. The complexes [Cu(L2)2(CH3COO)2 · 2H2O] and [Cu(L3)2(CH3COO)2 · 4H2O] where L2 and L3 are N (2- hydroxybenzyl)-3- or 4-aminopyridines are in mononuclear octahedric structure. XRD data of [Pd(L1)2Cl2 · 2C2H5OH] shows square planar environment around Pd (II) ion. The spectral data indicate structural similarity in the Pd complexes of both L2 and L3.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
