Synthesis and X-ray crystal structures of three copper(II) complexes of 1,4-bis(di-2-pyridylmethyl)phthalazine

© 2009 Informa plcThe synthesis and X-ray crystal structures of three discrete copper(II) complexes of 1,4-bis(di-2-pyridylmethyl)phthalazine (L) are reported. The complexes 1-3 have Cu2L, Cu3L and Cu2L2 composition and display interesting relationships to previously reported complexes of this ligand.Christopher J. Sumby and Peter J. Stee
