Furthermore, the nickel and copper complexes of calix[4]pyrrole meso-substituted Schiff base with 1:2 stoichiometry were obtained. The crystal structures of the calix[4]pyrroles and their metal complexes were determined by X-ray diffraction.展开更多

The metal to ligand molar ratios of the Cu(Ⅱ) complexes were found to be 1 : 1. The Cu(Ⅱ) complexes are 1 : 2 electrolytes as shown by their molar conductivities (∧m) in DMF at 10^-3 mol·L^-1. Due to the existence of free ions the Cu(Ⅱ) complexes are electrically conductive. Their configurations were proposed to be probably distorted octahedral.展开更多
