A zinc coordinated rare binuclear complex was synthesised and characterized by elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Two mononuclear units formed by two Schiff base ligands 2-((2-(pyrimidin-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol (PHP) coordinated with...
Abstract The electrochemical synthesis and physico-chemical properties of neutral zinc(II) complexes of bidentate Schiff bases derived from salicylaldehydes are presented together with the X-ray structure of bis[N-(4-methylphenyl)salicylaldiminato]zinc(II). The crystal is monoclinic, a = 21.877(3), b = 8.801(2), c = 12.027(5) Å, β = 96.55(3)°, space group C2/c. The complex is a monomer, and the zinc atom is tetrahedrally coordinated.
