Abstract
Copper complexes have been synthesized with 14-membered macrocyclic 5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11- Tetraazacyclotetradeca-7,14-dienium bromide (Me6N4H4)Br2 as ligand having six methyl groups and two double bonds located in diagonal position. These complexes were characterized by microelemental analysis, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-VIS) spectroscopies. The chemical analysis and spectroscopic data is supported by chemical crystallographic study showed that one of the synthesized copper complex with CuCl2 consists of [Cu(Me6N4H2)] dication, two bromide counter anions and 2 water molecules of crystallisation. Thermogravimetry Analysis (TGA) showed that the complex is stable up to about 200°C before gradually decomposed up to 400°C.
