Abstract

Abstract: The tertiary Cu II /N3 – /1-Mebta reaction scheme, where 1-Mebta is 1-methylbenzotriazole, led to the coordination complex [Cu(N3 )2 (1-Mebta)]n (1 ), which has an unusual 1-D corrugated tape polymeric structure built by μ-1, 1 and μ3 -1, 1, 1 end-on bridging azido groups, and terminally bound 1-Mebta ligands. Solid-state IR and UV-Vis spectra of 1 are discussed in terms of its structure. The combined results demonstrate the flexibility of both the azido and 1-Mebta groups upon coordination with 3d-metal ions, and their usefulness in the synthesis of azido-rich Cu(II) coordination polymers.
