Abstract
Abstract Five new metal complexes with the metal ions Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) and containing 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives and 1,3-propanediamine (tn) are described. The structural morphology of these coordination compounds depends on the triazolopyrimidine derivative used, being mononuclear for 5,7-dimethyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (dmtp) and 5-methyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7(4H)-one (HmtpO), and 1D-polymeric for 7-amine-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (7atp). In the 7atp case, this ligand does not coordinate through N3 atom, as expected, but through N1, N4 and N71 in a bridging fashion. This unexpected coordination mode seems to be induced by the stability of the polynuclear metal complex in presence of tn ligand. All isolated metal complexes have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR and UV–Vis spectroscopies, and EPR measurements. Moreover, luminescence measurements have been carried out for 7atp ligand and its polynuclear complex with Zn(II).
