In the title complex, [Cu(C14H13N2O2)2], the CuII ion is located on a crystallographic inversion center. The complex thus adopts a square-planar trans-[CuN2O2] coordination geometry, with the CuII ion coordinated by two 2-methoxy-6-(3-pyridylmethyliminomethyl)phenolate (Schiff base) ligands. The aryl and pyridyl rings in the Schiff base are almost perpendicular to each other, with a dihedral angle of 87.61 (6)° between the planes of the two six-membered rings. The pyridyl ring was refined using a disorder model with approximately 70% occupancy for the major component

The title compound was synthesized by Cu(NO3)2.3H2O and Schiff base ligand 2-methoxy-6-[(pyridin-3-ylmethylimino)-methyl]-phenol. All chemicals used (reagent grade) were commercially available. 2-Hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzaldehyde(0.108 g, 1 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (5 mL) and ethanol solution (5 ml) containing 2-aminoethylpyri dine (0.152 g, 1 mmol) was added slowly with stirring. The resulting yellow solution was continuously stirred for about 30 min. at room temperature, and then Cu(NO3)2.3H2O (0.241 g, 1 mmol) in aqueous solution (5 ml) was added with stirring at room temperature. Brown crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation at room temperature over several days.
H atoms were placed in geometrical positions and refined using a riding model, with C—H distances in the range 0.93–0.97Å and Uiso(H) =1.5Ueq(C) for methyl groups and Uiso(H) =1.2Ueq(C) for all others. The N2 and C13 atoms in the pyridyl ring was refined using a disorder model with approximately 70% occupancy for the major component

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Recent developments in functional switching materials (Sato et al., 2003) have shown that a good way to discover candidate metal complexes is to examine compounds that show any changes between two or more states, such as structural phase transitions, isomerism, mixed valences and spin-crossover. In this respect, bis-(N-alkysalicylideneimine)copper(II) complexes have potential for induced structural phase transitions (Yamada, 1999) and the structural isomers can be isolated (Chia et al., 1997).
Herein, we reported a new crystal strucure of the title compound (I). The stucture of (I) is shown in Fig.1. It can be clearly seen that this compound possesses a slightly distorted square-planar trans-[CuN2O2] coordination geomentry with the CuII ion located on a crystallographic inversion center. In addition, the phenyl ring is almost on the same plane with the [CuN2O2] square plane with a dihedral angle of approximately 6.293° between the two planes, while the pyridyl ring is nearly vertical with the [CuN2O2] square plane with a dihedral angle of approximately 83.12°. The pyridyl ring was refined using a two-part disorder model, interchanging the positions of N2 and C13 with approximately 70% occupancy for the major component; this conformation is the most likely according to the ring geometry and the surrounding environment.
