| Summary: | The tridentate ligand N,N-Bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-ylmethyl)-1-hydroxy-2-aminoethane (L) has been prepared in one step by condensation of two equivalents of 1-hydroxymethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazole with one equivalent of 2-aminoethanol. This reaction is carried out under microwave irradiation (60 W) in the absence of solvent for 20 min [1]. Using this ligand L a new Cu(II) dinitrate complex has been prepared. The singlecrystal X-ray structure of the title compound, [N,N-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-ylmethyl)-1-hydroxy-2-aminoethane] (3,5-dimethylpyrazole)copper(II) dinitrate, revels that the copper (II) ion is coordinated to two pyrazole nitrogens, one tertiary amine nitrogen of the ligand L and 3,5-dimethylpyrazole, and in the apical position by an alcohol O atom.
