Abstract: | The formation of a dimeric structure of a nonsymmetric Zn(II)salphen complex is reported. The X-ray molecular structure show the formation of an oxygen-bridged species (2). In addition to this structure, a pyridine-ligated complex and an 1:2 dabco/Zn(II)salphen supramolecular assembly (dabco = diazabicyclo2.2.2]octane) are presented. Their coordination behavior has been studied and can be correlated with the substitution pattern of the salphen ligand and the donor-strength of the involved axial ligands. The Zn(II)salphen building blocks bind in a cooperative fashion to the dabco template, the second unit being bound 4 times more strongly. |
