The structure of the ligand was characterized by IR, EA, 1H NMR spectroscopy. The binuclear Cu complex was determined by X-ray crystallography and thermal analysis. The two Cu(II) ions are bridged by two O atoms and each copper ion is surrounded by an asymmetric sal-pfh chromophore and a [image omitted] group. The coordination around each copper can be best described as a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. The electrochemical experimental results indicate that 2 can bind to DNA with good stability.", }
