In Situ Self-Assembly of 1D Copper(II) Coordination Polymer Containing EO Azide and Phenolate Bridges: Crystal Structure and Magnetic Properties

A novel one-dimensional copper(II) coordination polymer with formula [Cu II (L 1 )(N 3 )] n (1), has been prepared via in situ self-assembly. Compound 1 consists of 1D uniform chains in which the copper(II) ions are bridged by end-on azide and an oxygen of salicylideneamine (L 1 ). Magnetic susceptibility measurement reveals the existence of relatively strong ferromagnetic interactions in the 1D chain.
