Abstract
Transition-metal complexes of imidazole ImH (C3H4N2) are relevant for the study of metalloenzymes and protein folding. Moreover, these materials could lead to potential applications such as electrochromic displays, photovoltaic cells and biomaterials. A series of metal-imidazole complexes of general formula Mx+Im-x (where x =1,2 ; M = Ag, Zn, Co, Cu and Im = C3H4N2 is the deprotonated form of ImH) was synthesized and comprehensively studied as model materials for metalloproteins and molecular magnets. Their atomic dynamic properties were investigated with x-ray diffraction, XANES, EXAFS, vibrational spectroscopy and magnetic techniques. Metal-ligand bond lengths and force constants were estimated. The relationship between these structural data and the rich spin dynamics revealed for M = Cu, Co bis-imidazolate compounds is discussed.
