Abstract

To systematically explore the influence of inorganic anions on building coordination complexes, five novel complexes based on 1-(benzotriazole-1-methyl)−2-propylimidazole (bpmi), [Cu(bpmi)2(Ac)2]·H2O (1), [Cu(bpmi)2(H2O)2]·2NO3·2H2O (2), [Cu(bpmi)(N3)2] (3), [Ag(bpmi)(NO3)] (4) and [Cu3(bpmi)2(SCN)4(DMF)] (5) (Ac=CH3COO, DMF=N,N-Dimethylformamide) are synthesized through rationally introducing Cu(II) salts and Ag(I) salt with different inorganic anions. X-ray single-crystal analyses reveal that these complexes show interesting structural features from mononuclear (1), one-dimensional (2 and 3), two-dimensional (4) to three-dimensional (5) under the influence of inorganic anions with different basicities. The structural variation can be explained by the hard-soft-acid-base (HSAB) theory. Magnetic susceptibility measurement indicates that complex 3 exhibits an antiferromagnetic coupling between adjacent Cu(II) ions.
