✦ Synopsis


The coordinative capacity of 2-benzylthio-4-formyl-l-pmethoxyphenylimidazole (ALME) with several transition metal ions has been investigated and has led to only copper(II) and cadmium(II) complexes of general formula [MHC12(ALME)2I-nH20. These compounds were studied by spectral (i.r., u.v.-vis, n.i.r, and e.p.r.) and thermal methods (t.g., d.t.g, and d.s.c.) as well as magnetic susceptibility measurements.

The crystal structure of the copper complex has been solved, although a full refinement of the structure has not been possible as very few measured reflections were observed. The structure consists of discrete [CuClz-(ALME)2 ] units in which Cu(II) ion is 4 + 2 ClzN20 2 surrounded [Cu--CI(1), 2.28(1),~; Cu--CI(2), 2.29(1)~; Cu--N, 2.00(2)~; Cu--O, 2.71(2),~]. The ALME ligand acts as bidentate chelator through the N(3) imidazolic atom and the oxygen of the formyl group, the Cu--O interaction being very weak. Water molecules have not been localized.
