Abstract
(C8H11N)2·Zn(OAc)2 (1a), (C8H11N)2·Cu(OAc)2 (1b), and (C8H11N)2·CuCl2 (1c) complexes are synthesized by a simple one-pot method. The crystal structures of 1a, 1b, and 1c are determined by X-ray crystallography. The complexes are also characterized by NMR, IR, MS, and elemental analysis and used as the catalysts applied to the Henry reaction; moderate to high yields are obtained at room temperature.
