Abstract

Reaction of 4’,4’’-diacetylcurcumin (HL) with CuCl2 ∙ 2H2O in the solvent mixture of MeOH and CH2Cl2 gives rise to the corresponding complex. The composition and structure of the resulting complex are characterized and determined by the IR spectroscopy and the Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction (SC-XRD) method. The results reveal the composition [Cu(L)2] of the complex, in which 4’,4’’-diacetylcurcumin serves as monoanionic bidentate ligands with the donor sets (O,O) of the β-diketone moieties.

Keywords: Curcumin derivatives, Cu(II) complexes, X-ray structure.
