The copper(II) ion has a distorted octahedral geometry in 1 and distorted square pyramidal geometry in 2. 1 crystallizes in space group P1̄, while 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system with the space group P21/n. 2-Benzoylbenzoate behaves as a monodentate in 1, bidentate in 2. 2-pyridilpropanol ligand acts as a bidentate in 1 and bridging in 2. Both complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, mass and IR spectroscopy. Their molecular structures were determined by X-ray crystal structure analysis and their thermal stabilities were confirmed by TG/DTA/DTG techniques. Dinuclear compound shows high catalytic activity regarding the oxidation of 3,5-di-tert-butylcatechol to 3,5-di-tert-butylquinone exhibiting saturation kinetics at high substrate concentrations. In addition, dinuclear compound demonstrates significantly catalase-like activity. But mononuclear complex shows neither catalase-like nor catechol oxidase activity.© 2012 Elsevier B.V.
