Synthesis, structure, and application of self-assembled copper(II) aqua complex by H-bonding for acceleration of the nitroaldol reaction on water
Abstract
Copper(II) aqua complex 1 has been prepared in a one-pot synthesis. The single crystal X-ray analysis showed that the complex is self-assembled through aqua ligands by H-bond interactions and the copper(II) atoms are pentacoordinated with square pyramidal geometry. Complex 1 has been studied for the acceleration of the nitroalodol reaction on water. It is a clean technological process and the catalyst can be recycled without loss of activity. © 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
