The Cu(II) atom of the title complex, [Cu(C(16)H(12)ClNO(3))(C(3)H(4)N(2))]·H(2)O, has a distorted square-planar coordination geometry formed by a tridentate Schiff base dianion and an imidazole ligand. The imidazole is nearly coplanar with the coordination plane, the dihedral angle between the planes being 3.73 (12)°. In the Schiff base ligand, the two benzene rings are oriented at a dihedral ...

The Au atom in the C2-symmetric pincer-type title complex, [AuCl(C(19)H(23)N(5))], is in the +3 oxidation state. The ligand is composed of one pyridine unit and two n-butyl-substituted pyrazoles (pyrz). Both pyrazoles are deprotonated, thus forming a neutral compound. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first Au(III)-bis-pyrazolate complex. According to the special geometry in the N,N',N'...

In the title complex, [Cu(C(17)H(19)N(2)O(2))(NCS)], the Cu(II) atom is chelated by the phenolate O atom, the imine N atom and the amine N atom of the N,N',O-tridentate 2-eth-oxy-6-[(2-anilino-ethyl)-iminometh-yl]phenolate ligand, and by the N atom of a thio-cyanate anion, forming a distorted CuON(3) square-planar geometry. The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings of the ligand is 67.9 (4)...

In the title dinuclear compound, [V(2)(C(15)H(17)N(2)O)(2)O(4)], each V(V) atom is six-coordinated by one oxide group, and by two N and one O atom of the tridentate Schiff base ligand, and bridged by two additional oxide O atoms, resulting in a centrosymmetric dimer. The metal centre has a distorted octa-hedral coordination with the monoanionic Schiff base ligand occupying one equatorial and tw...

A new Cu-catalyzed asymmetric [3 + 3] cycloaddition of propargyl esters with cyclic enamines is reported. With a combination of Cu(OAc)(2)·H(2)O and a chiral tridentate ferrocenyl-P,N,N ligand as the catalyst, perfect endo selectivities (endo/exo > 98/2) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee) for endo cycloadducts were achieved under mild conditions. This method provides a simple and...

The first enantioselective copper-catalyzed decarboxylative propargylic alkylation has been developed. Treatment of propargyl β-ketoesters with a catalyst, prepared in situ from [Cu(CH3 CN)4 BF4 ] and a newly developed chiral tridentate ketimine P,N,N-ligand under mild reaction conditions, generates β-ethynyl ketones in good yields and with high enantioselectivities without requiring the pregen...

The dimeric title compound, [Cu(2)(C(9)H(10)N(3)O)(2)(N(3))(2)], is located on a crystallographic inversion center. The Cu atom is coordinated by a tridentate anionic hydrazone ligand and two bridging azide ligands in a distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry. The non-bonding Cu⋯Cu distance is 3.238 (1) Å. Non-classical inter-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the dimers into chains a...

In the mol-ecule of the title compound, [Sn(C(2)H(5))(2)(C(9)H(8)N(2)O(3))], the Sn atom is five-coordinated in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal configuration by two O and one N atoms of the tridentate Schiff base ligand in the equatorial plane, and by two C atoms of ethyl groups in the axial positions. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into cent...

In the title compound, [Cd(C4H5NO4)(H2O)2] n , the Cd(II) atom exhibits a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry, defined by one N atom and three O atoms from two iminodi-acetate (IDA) ligands and two water molecules. The tridentate IDA ligand additionally bridges via one of its carboxylate O atoms to another Cd(II) atom, thus forming a zigzag chain along [001]. A three-dimensional network...

The Cu atom of the title complex, [Cu(C(13)H(19)N(2)O(2))(C(10)H(8)N(2))]ClO(4), has a distorted square-pyramidal geometry with all three of the donor atoms from the N,N',O-tridentate Schiff base ligand in the equatorial positions and the bipyridine N atoms in an equatorial-axial binding mode. The Cu atom is 0.1801 (11) Å above the N(3)O mean basal plane.
