Abstract
Abstract (1-Methyl-2-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole) (C 12 H 10 N 2 S) ( L ) ligand and its three copper complexes [(Cu 2 ( L ) 2 I 2 ] ( 1 ), [(Cu( L ) 2 X 2 ] (X = Cl − ( 2 ), and NO 3 − ( 3 )) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and IR measurements. The structures of the complexes 1–3 were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex molecules interact with each other’s via weak C H⋯X hydrogen bonds (X = I for the complex 1 , X = Cl for the complex 2 and X = O for the complex 3 ). Upon excitation with a wavelength of 350 nm at room temperature, free L and complex 1 emit fluorescence at 420 and 560 nm, respectively.
