There have been considerable interest in the coordination chemistry of metal complexes with pyrazole and their derivatives owing to diverse coordination modes and relevance to a biological-active metal center with imidazole-like ligands. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Recently, we studied metal complexes with a multidentate ligand, N,N,N¢,N¢-tetrakis(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)methyl-1,4-phenylenediamine (tpmp), having the 1,4-phenylenediamine moiety, and isolated a dinuclear cobalt complex from a reaction of cobalt(II) chloride and tpmp consisting of two tetrahedral cobalt(II) atoms with two pyrazolato-nitrogen atoms of tpmp and two chloride atoms. 6 In this study, we tried to extend this work to reactions with other metal salts, such as cobalt(II) acetate and nickel(II) acetate. We found totally different products with 3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)methanolato (dmpm -), as shown in Fig
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
