Reaction of 3-（pyridin-2-yl）-imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine （HPIP）, CuCi2·2H20 and picolinaldehyde in the mixture of CHaCOOH and EtOH under solvothermal conditions gave complexes [LCuCI][CuECI3] （1） and [HLCuC1]E[C...Reaction of 3-（pyridin-2-yl）-imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine （HPIP）, CuCi2·2H20 and picolinaldehyde in the mixture of CHaCOOH and EtOH under solvothermal conditions gave complexes [LCuCI][CuECI3] （1） and [HLCuC1]E[CuCI2]2[CuCI3].2H20 （2） （L = 1,1＇-（pyridin-2- ylmethylene）bis[3-（pyridin-2-yl）imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine]） simultaneously. The ligand L was generated via in situ metal-ligand reaction between HPIP and picolinaldehyde. When CuCI2·2H20 was replaced by CuC1, the 2：1：1（HPIP：picolinaldehyde：CuCI） reaction afforded complex [CuaL2CI2][CuCI2]·2H20 （3） and the analogous 2：1：3 reaction generated compound [CuaL2][CuCI2]3 （4）. Complexes 1 and 2 are Cun/CuI mixed-valence compounds. Complexes 1-4 display four various structures. It is found that the formation of the L ligand is controlled by CH3COOH. This work reveals that the structures of complexes 1-4 could be rationally tuned via the inclusion of CH3COOH in the reaction systems, the proper selection of different starting materials and the dexterous adjustment of the ratio of the starting materials.展开更多

Analysis of the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) and determination of the dual descriptor revealed that in most cases, the nitrogen atoms of the 6-πelectron conjugation, the oxygen, and the sulfur atom are nucleophilic site. Chemical reactivity of the compounds was assessed through analysis of frontier molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO), energy gap (Δℰ), chemical hardness (η), and the softness (S). Consequently, the compound 9e exhibited the lowest reactivity, least electron donating, and the highest stability. This comprehensive study offers valuable insights into the chemical behavior of these derivatives, crucial for further exploration and potential applications.展开更多
