Synthesis of a Novel Unexpected Cu(II)-Thiazolidine Complex-X-ray Structure, Hirshfeld Surface Analysis, and Biological Studies.

ABSTRACT: An unexpected trinuclear Cu(II)-thiazolidine complex has been synthesized by mixing CuCl₂·2H₂O with the Schiff base ligand, 1-(((4,5-dihydrothiazol-2-yl)ethylidene)hydrazono)methyl)phenol L, in ethanol. Unexpectedly, the reaction proceeded via the hydrolysis of the Schiff base L, followed by cyclization to afford 3-methyl-5,6-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-c][1,2,3]triazole (L^a), then complexation with the Cu(II) salt, forming the trinuclear [Cu₃(L^a)₄(Cl)₆] complex. The complex was characterized by means of FTIR spectra, elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography. In the trinuclear [Cu₃(L^a)₄(Cl)₆] complex, there are two crystallographica
