1. Introduction
Pyridine derivative which has antibacterial activity [1] is able to act as ligands. It is due to the availability
of free electron pair to bond with a metal ion. Pyridine derivative ligands can form complexes with
different types of donor atoms coordinated to the metal ion. In case the complex of [Ag(2-amino-3-
methylpyridine)2]NO3, the ligand has an electron donor atom N in the primary amine and N-pyridine.
Coordinated donor atoms are N in pyridine [2]. After complexing, the effectivity of ligands as
antibacterial increase significantly. The complex of Cu(II)-2,4-dinitro-6(pyridine-2-
ylmethylamino)methyl-phenolate has better bactericidal activity than complex of Fe(II), Zn(II), Ni(II)
and 2,4-dinitro-6(pyridine-2-ylmethylamino)-methylphenolate as ligands [3]. Therefore, complexing
copper ion with pyridine derivative ligands seems promising due to the improvement of both
antibacterial activities.
Copper is one of transition metal elements with 3d9 electron configuration that can form complexes
because they have d orbitals are not fully charged electrons. Copper has the oxidation number of +1 and
+2, copper in the form of Cu(II) is more stable than Cu(I). Cu(II) can form a wide variety of geometries
in the complex include square planar [4], square pyramidal [5], and octahedral [6] but generally Cu(II)
has a coordination number of four bonded to ligands forming complexes with square planar structure.

4. Conclusion
The complex [Cu(2-amino-3-methylpyridine)4]SO4∙4H2O was able to be synthesized by mixing a
methanolic solution of Cu(II) and a methanolic solution of 2-amino-3-methylpyridine solution with a
mole ratio of 1:6 and stirring for 3 hours. The functional group coordinated to the Cu(II) was possibly
N-pyridine, forming square planar geometry. The complex is paramagnetic has one peak at maximum
UV-Vis absorption of 730 nm.
