Abstract: | Two ligands have been prepared in which N,O-bidentate chelating pyrazolyl-phenolate units, based on 3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)pyrazole, are connected via methylene linkages to aromatic (1,4-phenylene or 3,3′-biphenylene) spacers. In each case the two N,O-donor units are too far apart to chelate to a single metal ion. Complexes of both ligands with Co(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) were prepared and structurally characterised; in all cases the complexes are dinuclear double helicates M2L2, with each four-coordinate metal ion bound by a chelating unit from each of the two ligands in the complex. For Co(II) and Zn(II) the two M(NO) planes at each metal are close to perpendicular, indicative of a geometry which may be described as approximately distorted tetrahedral; for the Cu(II) complexes the angle between the two Cu(NO) planes is less, indicative of a distortion towards a more planar coordination geometry. |
