Abstract
Seven new 3-cyanopyridine Cu4OBrnCl(6−n)(3-CNpy)4 (n = 0–6) complexes were prepared and studied by infrared spectra, electronic spectra, and cyclic voltammetry. Infrared spectra revealed a distortion of the tetrahedral Cu4O core to C 2ν or C 3ν symmetries and a donor-acceptor vibrational coupling with the in-plane pyridine ring bending within the O-Cu-(pyridine ring)CN system involving the π-back bonding between Cu(II) atoms and 3-CNpy ligands. Bands of the electronic spectra and half-wave potentials of the complexes are consistent with the weak donor and strong acceptor behaviour of the 3-CNpy ligands. The results were compared with analogous complexes of pyridine, 3-substituted and 4-substituted pyridine ligands.
