Abstract
|
A new coordination compound, [Cu(L)2(OH2)](ClO4)2 where, L = N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)propane-2-amine was prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance and IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy techniques. X-ray crystal analysis of the complex confirmed that the copper(II) ion has a distorted square pyramidal environment. The complex is chromotropic in solution. Chromotropism properties of the complex including solvato-, thermo-, halo-, and ionochromism were investigated in detail. The complex displayed strongly pronounced reversible thermochromism in solution due to dissociation and of re-coordination of water molecule.
