Synthesis, Structure And Magnetic Property Of A Copper(Ii)-Cobalt(Ii) Heteronuclear Complex With Schiff Base Ligand

A new heteronuclear complex [LCuCo(NO3)(2)] (1) (H2L = N,N'-ethylenebis [3-methoxysalicylaldimine]) was synthesized and structurally characterized. The complex consists of a dimer skeleton which composed of a slightly distorted square-planar copper and pentacoordinated cobalt ions. The magnetic properties reveal the presence of antiferromagnetic interactions between the metal centers linked by double phenoxo-bridging.
