Benhassine, Anfel published the artcileCopper(II) and zinc(II) as metal-carboxylate coordination complexes based on (1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl) methanol derivative: Synthesis, crystal structure, spectroscopy, DFT calculations and antioxidant activity, COA of Formula: C9H10N2O, the publication is Journal of Molecular Structure (2018), 406-414, database is CAplus.
This work presents a combined exptl. and theor. study of two new metal-carboxylate coordination compounds These complexes were prepared from (1-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)methanol under mild conditions. The structures of the prepared compounds were characterized by single-crystal x-ray anal., FTIR and UV-visible spectroscopy. In the Copper complex, the Cu(II) ion is coordinated by two ligands, which act as bidentate chelator through the non-substituted N and O atoms, and two carboxylic oxygen atoms, displaying a hexacoordinated compound in a distorted octahedral geometry, while in the zinc complex the ligand is ligated to the Zn(II) ion in monodentate fashion through the N atom, and the metal ion is also bonded to carboxylic oxygen atoms. The tetracoordinated compound displays a distorted tetrahedral shape. The d. functional theory calculations were carried out for the determination of the optimized structures. The electronic transitions and fundamental vibrational wave numbers are calculated and are in good agreement with exptl. In addition, the ligand and its Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes were screened and evaluated for their potential as DPPH radical scavenger.
