Abstract

A series of N–Zn and N–Cu complexes with 2-amino pyridine and ethylenediamine ligands (1a-b and 2a-b) have been synthesized and characterized. These complexes were synthesized with a simple one-pot method, and the crystal structures of 1a, 1b, 2a and 2b were described using X-ray crystallography. The complexes were further examined using NMR, IR, and elemental analysis. They were applied as catalysts in the Henry reaction, and under ideal circumstances, high yields were attained.
