DICHLORO-[N-(2PIRYDYLMETHYLIDENE)-2-THIENYLMEtHYLAMINE-N,N'] COPPER(II) AND DIBROMO-N-(2-PYRIDILMETHYLIDENE)-2-THIENYLMETHYL-AMINE-N,N]COPPER(II) COMPLEXES, [CUCL2(C11H10N2S)] AND [CLCUBR2(C2(C11H10N2S)]

Abstract

The crystal structures of dichloro- (2) and dibromo[2-pyridilmethylidene)-2thienylmethylidene)-2-thienylmethylmethyamine-NN'] copper(II) (1) have been determined to investigate the coordination of die metal centre. In both cases, the two N atoms and two halogen anions are coordianted to the copper(II) and the S atom is free. For the dibromo complex, the structure is monomeric, while die dichloro complex forms dimers (di-mu-chloro-bis(chloro[N-(2-pirydylmediylidene)-2-thienylmethyl-amine-N,N']copper(II)])
