Synthesis and characterisation of the first transition metal complex of zoxazolamine (2-amino-5-chlorobenzoxazole): the X-ray crystal structure determination of [ZnCl 2(η 1- N benzoxazole-2-amino-5-chlorobenzoxazole) 2]

The synthesis and characterisation (NMR, X-ray, elemental analysis) of the first transition metal complex of Zoxazolamine ( 1: 2-amino-5-chlorobenzoxazole), viz. [ZnCl 2( 1) 2] ( 2) is described; complex 2 is obtained in 77% yield from the treatment of 1 with ZnCl 2 in acetone solution. The Zn compo...

Description
Summary:The synthesis and characterisation (NMR, X-ray, elemental analysis) of the first transition metal complex of Zoxazolamine ( 1: 2-amino-5-chlorobenzoxazole), viz. [ZnCl 2( 1) 2] ( 2) is described; complex 2 is obtained in 77% yield from the treatment of 1 with ZnCl 2 in acetone solution. The Zn compound is a mononuclear species (X-ray) with a distorted tetrahedral array of ligands around the metal centre with the title ligand bound to Zn via the benzoxazole ring N-atom. The structural properties of 2 are discussed in relation to other mononuclear Zn halide complexes.
