Abstract
Dinuclear and tetranuclear copper(II) complexes with a ligand bearing phthalocyanine and Schiff-base coordination sites were prepared and characterized. The dinuclear complex has two copper(II) phthalocyanine units linked by 2,6-diiminomethyl-4-methylphenol. The imino nitrogen (Schiff-base) coordinates to two more copper(II) ions to give a tetranuclear copper(II) complex composed of a hydroxo- and phenoxo-bridged copper(II) dinuclear unit and two copper(II) phthalocyanine units. Magnetic, spectroscopic, and electrochemical studies showed that there is no significant interaction among the two copper(II) phthalocyanine units and the hydroxo- and phenoxo-bridged dinuclear unit.
