Novel ambient light induced trimerization of a simple copper(II) monomeric Schiff base complex.
Room temperature, light promoted trimerization of a monomeric complex [Cu(HL)(L)](NO(3)).H(2)O (HL =N,N-dimethyl-N[prime or minute]-propylsalicylideneimine) dissolved in CH(2)Cl(2), was observed with the concomitant generation of new ligand moiety (ClCH(2)L).
