Abstract/Summary The geometries of (imidazole-N3)(N-salicylidene-alaninato-O,N,O') copper(II) complex (CuSalala.imid) and of its possible adducts wit OH- and H2O at various sites of CuO2N2 coordination polyhedron have been optimized using B3LYP hybrid functional. OH- anion bonded at Cu site replaces the imidazole ligand in the copper (II) coordination sphere. This may be understood as the first step of experimentally observed copper (II)hydroxide formation in the absence of reducing sugars. Stable adducts with H2O have been found at oxygen sites only. Their formation is less energetically advantageous due to hydrogen bonding only. Water molecules activate CuSalala.imid by weakening the Cu-O bonds.
