Finelli, Alba Abram, Sarah-Luise Hérault, Nelly Crochet, Aurélien Fromm, Katharina M. 2020-08-05 The new bimetallic coordination compounds [LNiAg(NO3)], [LCuMn(NO3)2], [LCuCu(NO3)2], [LCuZn(NO3)2], and [{LCuBi(NO3)3}(ACN)] have been synthesized from a salen-type ligand L containing two distinct coordination sites to accommodate (different) metal ions M1 and M2. In the solid state, the formation of 1:1 compounds (LCu:M2) is always observed, but interactions between the compounds lead to differences in packing. For example, a head-to-tail arrangement along the crystallographic b-axis is observed in the case of the LCuBi compound, and the LNiAg compound is polymeric, while its Cu homologue LCuAg forms a discrete dimer. Given the inherent potential of the preorganizing, two metal ions using L could be used to synthesize nanoscale copper–bismuth and −manganese mixed metal oxides as a function of the temperature. The combination of different bioactive metal ions within one ligand system was furthermore explored for antimicrobial efficiency. application/pdf https://folia.unifr.ch/global/documents/309089 https://folia.unifr.ch/documents/309089/files/fro_bsb.pdf https://folia.unifr.ch/documents/309089/files/fro_bsb_sm.pdf eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1021/acs.cgd.9b01610 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess License undefined Crystal Growth & Design. - 2020, vol. 20, no. 8, p. 4945–4958 info:eu-repo/classification/udc/54 Bimetallic salen-based compounds and their potential applications http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
