Synthesis, Crystal Structures and Urease Inhibition of 4-Bromo-N'-(1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene)benzohydrazide and Its Dinuclear Copper(II) Complex.

A new dinuclear copper(II) complex [Cu2(μ-Br)2L2]·0.5MeOH with the benzohydrazone ligand 4-bromo-N'-(1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene)benzohydrazide (HL) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and UV-Vis spectroscopic studies. Single crystal structures of the complex and the benzohydrazone compound were studied.
