title: Magnetic, epr and SOD studies of some Cu(II)-Cu(II), Cu(II)-Ni(II) and Cu(II)-Zn(II) imidazolate bridged complexes.
abstract: Magnetic, spectroscopic and superoxide dismutase activity of imidazolate bridged [(Salala)Cu-Im-Cu(Salala)]Na, [(Salala)Cu-Im-Zn(Salala)]Na and [(Salala)Cu-Im-Ni(Salala)]Na (Salala=Salicyledenealiniate, Im=Imdiazolate) are described. The epr and electronic spectra of related mononuclear complexes, viz., [(Salala)Cu-OH(2)] and [(Salala)Cu-ImH] also described. Appearance of a half-field signal in polycrystalline and decrease in mu(eff) per copper(II) ion indicate super exchange coupling between copper(II) ion in [(Salala)Cu-Im-Cu(Salala)]Na binuclear complex. A pH-dependent epr and UV-vis study of 50% aqueous DMSO solution of binuclear complexes suggest that the complexes are stable in narrow pH range.
