The research aimed to investigate the impact of hydrogen bonding on coordination, particularly semi-coordination, in transition metal complexes, using trans-di(salicylato)bis(1,3-diaminopropane-N,N’)copper(II) as a model compound. The study employed single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at 193(2) K to determine the crystal and molecular structure of the complex. The central copper(II) ion was found to occupy a center of symmetry within a monomeric complex unit, with the coordination polyhedron described as an axially elongated distorted octahedron, indicative of semi-coordination. The research concluded that semi-coordination is characterized by electrostatic attraction between the central copper(II) cation and repulsion between an electron lone pair of a ligand atom and the electron lone pair at the copper(II) 3dz2 atomic orbital. The chemicals used in the synthesis of the complex included salicylic acid, CuCO3, and 1,3-diaminopropane, with the final product being characterized by various analytical methods.
