Halogen substituent effects on self-assembly of square planar copper(II) complexes

What is it about?

The follow-up work associated with the previous publication about the influence of halogen p-substituents in flexible tridentate salicylaldimine ligands on self-assembly. p-chloro derivative is octahedral polymeric copper(II) complex while p-bromo is square planar. This paper describes self-assembly of a complex with both chlorine and bromine substituents. The complex is square planar in the solid state.

Why is it important?

Halogen bonding is a very important type of interaction, and this letter is somewhat associated. Substituent effect plays a crucial role in catalysis and sensing.
