1d Copper(I) Coordination Polymer [Cu2(Μ-L)(Μ-I)2]N : Synthesis, Crystal Structure, Spectral and Thermal Study

A new 1d copper(i) coordination polymer [cu2(μ-l)(μ-i)2]n (1), where l is n,n'-bis(4-nitrobenzylidene)butane-1,4-diamine, was synthesized and characterized by chn, ft-ir, 1h nmr, and single-crystal x-ray analyses. based on x-ray results, this new compound crystallizes in a monoclinic system with space group p21/c. the asymmetric unit consists of one copper and one iodine atoms and half of the schiff base ligand (l). the flexible schiff base compound is coordinated to copper(i) ion as a bis-monodentate ligand. the coordination geometry around the copper(i) ions is distorted trigonal planar. the thermal behavior of 1 was studied using thermogravimetry analysis. moreover, the nanoparticles of 1 were prepared via the ultrasonic-assisted method and characterized by xrd and sem analyses.
