Colorless crystals of CuL, where L = 3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde-N,N-bis(3-aminopropyl)methylamine, were obtained by self-assembly of 3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde-N,N-bis(3-aminopropyl)methylamine and Cu(NO3)(2)center dot 4H(2)O in 2:1 (v/v) CH3OH-H2O. The Cu(II) complex was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis. The monoclinic crystal belongs to space group P2(1)/c with a = 10.3028(14) a"<<, b = 14.0255(12) a"<<, c = 17.355(14) a"<<, beta = 97.474(3)A degrees, V = 2,487(2) a"<<(3), Z = 4, D (c) = 1.344 g cm(-3), mu = 0.913 mm(-1), F(000) = 1,060, and final R = 0.0563, omega R = 0.0995. In the crystal structure, each Cu(II) atom is five-coordinated in a distorted square pyramid environment by two phenolic O atoms and three N atoms from the ligand. The molecules form a one-dimensional chain structure by intermolecular hydrogen bond interaction. The electrochemical properties of the Cu(II) complex were investigated.
