Xy. Xu et al., SYNTHESIS AND CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE OF A NEW N-ALKYLATED AZACROWN LIGAND AND ITS COPPER(II) COMPLEX, Synthesis and reactivity in inorganic and metal-organic chemistry, 27(7), 1997, pp. 1059-1069
A new pendant-arm macrocyclic ligand, N,N'-bis(2-cyanoethyl)-3,4:9, 10
-dibenzol, 12-diaza-5, 8-dioxacyclopentadecane (L), was synthesized in
93% yield by alkylating :9,10-dibenzo-1,12-diaza-5,8-dioxacyclopentad
ecane with acrylonitrile. Its crystal structure was determined and its
copper(II) complex was also prepared. All compounds were characterize
d by IR, NMR, elemental analyses and UV-Vis. The complex has the formu
la of CuLCl2 . 2H(2)O.
