X-ray Crystal Structure, Geometric Isomerism, and Antimicrobial Activity of New Copper(II) Carboxylate Complexes with Imidazole Derivatives.

ABSTRACT: Five new copper(II) acrylate complexes (acr is the acrylate anion: C₃H₃O₂) with imidazole derivatives (2-methylimidazole/2-MeIm, 5-methylimidazole/5-MeIm, 2-ethylimidazole/2-EtIm) of type: cis-[Cu(2-RIm)₂(acr)₂]·xH₂O ((1): R = ⁻CH₃, x = 2; (4): R = ⁻CH₂⁻CH₃, x = 0), trans-[Cu(2-RIm)₂(acr)₂] ((2): R = ⁻CH₃; (5): R = ⁻CH₂⁻CH₃) and trans-[Cu(5-RIm)₂(acr)₂] ((3): R = ⁻CH₃) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometry (FTIR), Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR), electronic reflectance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and mass spectrometry. The single crystal X-ray diffraction study of complexes (2) and (5) reveals that the copper(II) ion is located on an inve
