Article Synopsis
  • A series of homoleptic complexes were created using the 7-azaindole anion with transition metals like Mn(II), Fe(II), and Co(II), leading to tetracoordinate structures featuring specific coordination through pyrrolic N1 nitrogen atoms.
  • Sodium ions were found to closely associate with the complexes, being involved in interactions with both pyrrolic and pyridine nitrogen atoms of the ligands.
  • Additional studies revealed that substituting sodium with lithium or potassium in the Fe(II) complexes produced similar geometrical structures, and density functional theory calculations indicated strong ionic character in the bonding of the 7-azaindolide ligands to the transition metals.
