Synthesis, structure, spectral and electron-transfer properties of octahedral-[CoIII(L)2]+/[ZnII(L)2] and square planar-[CuII(L){OC(O)CH3}] complexes incorporating anionic form of tridentate bis(8-quinolinyl)amine [N1C9H6–N2–C9H6N3, L−] ligand

Synthesis, characterization and extraction studies of some metal (II) complexes containing (hydrazoneoxime and bis-acylhydrazone) moieties

In this study, diacetylmonoximebenzoylhydrazone (L(1)H(2)) and 1,4-diacetylbenzene bis(benzoyl hydrazone) (L(2)H(2)) were synthesized by the condensation of benzohydrazide with diacetyl monoxime and 1,4-diacetylbenzene, respectively. Complexes of these ligands with Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) inos were prepared with a metal:ligand ratio of 1:2 for L(1)H(2) ligand, and 1:1 for L(2)H(2) ligand. The ligands and their complexes were elucidated on the basis of elemental analyses CHN, AAS, FT-IR, (1)H- and (13)C NMR spectra, UV-vis spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Results show the L(1)H(2) ligand act as monoanionic O,N,N-tridentate and coordination takes place in the enol form through the oxime nitrogen, the imine nitrogen and the enolate oxygen atoms with a N(4)O(2) donor environment, while the L(2)H(2) ligand act as a dianionic O,N,N,O-tetradentate and coordination takes place in the enol form through the enolate oxygen and the azomethine nitrogen atoms with a N(2)O(2) donor environment. These results are consistent with the formation of mononuclear metal (II) complexes [M(L(1)H)(2)], and binuclear polymeric metal (II) complexes [{M(2)(L(2))}(n)]. The extraction ability of both ligands were examined in chloroform by the liquid-liquid extraction of selected transition metal [Co(2+), Ni(2+), Cu(2+), Zn(2+) and Pb(2+)] cations. The effects of pH and contact time on the percentage extraction of metal (II) ions were studied under the optimum extraction conditions. The (L(1)H(2)) ligand shows strong binding ability toward copper(II) and lead(II) ions, while the (L(2)H(2)) ligand shows strong binding ability toward nickel(II) and zinc(II) ions.

Spectroscopic, and thermal studies of some new binuclear transition metal(II) complexes with hydrazone ligands containing acetoacetanilide and isoxazole

A new chelating ligand, 2-(2-(5-tert-butylisoxazol-3-yl)hydrazono)-N-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)-3-oxobutanamide (HL), and its four binuclear transition metal complexes, M(2)(L)(2) (micro-OCH(3))(2) [M=Ni(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II)], were synthesized using the procedure of diazotization, coupling and metallization. Their structures were postulated based on elemental analysis, (1)H NMR, MALDI-MS, FT-IR spectra and UV-vis electronic absorption spectra. Smooth films of these complexes on K9 glass substrates were prepared using the spin-coating method and their absorption properties were evaluated. The thermal properties of the metal(II) complexes were investigated by thermogravimetry (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Different thermodynamic and kinetic parameters namely activation energy (E*), enthalpy of activation (DeltaH*), entropy of activation (DeltaS*) and free energy change of activation (DeltaG*) are calculated using Coats-Redfern (CR) equation.

Synthesis and spectroscopic studies of mixed-ligand and polymeric dinuclear transition metal complexes with bis-acylhydrazone tetradentate ligands and 1,10-phenanthroline

Two types of dinuclear copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes with two tetradentate N2O2 donor ligands 1,4-bis(1-anthranoylhydrazonoethyl)benzene (L1), 1,4-bis(1-salicyloylhydrazonoethyl)benzene (L2) and N,N'-bidentate heterocyclic base [1,10-phenonthroline (phen)] have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectra, UV-vis electronic absorption spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The reaction of metal(II) acetates with the solution containing ligand and 1,10-phenonthroline in methanol gives mixed-ligand dinuclear metal(II) complexes with general formula [M2L(phen)2]Cl2 (L=L1 or L2), whereas, the ligands react with metal(II) acetates to form polymeric dinuclear complexes with general formula [(M2L2)n] (L=L1 or L2). In the complexes, the ligands act as dianionic tetradentate and coordination takes place in the enol tautomeric form with the enolic oxygen and azomethine nitrogen atoms while the phenolic hydroxyl and amino groups of aroylhydrazone moiety do not participate in coordination. The effect of varying pH and solvent on the absorption behavior of both ligands and complexes has been investigated.

Synthesis and structures of acyclic monoanionic tetradentate aza β-diketiminate complexes of magnesium, zinc, and cadmium

An acyclic monoanionic tetradentate nitrogen ligand was prepared through the condensation of 2-(4-tolyl)-malondialdehyde and 8-aminoquinoline to give (BDI(QQ))H where (BDI(QQ))H = (8-quinolyl)-NCHC(4-tolyl)CHNH-(8-quinolyl). Metal complexes, (BDI(QQ))MX, were prepared where MX = MgBr 2, ZnCl 3, and CdOAc 4. The spectroscopic and crystallographic properties of compounds 2, 3, and 4 were explored. Structures of complexes 2, 3, 4, and the tridentate ligand, (BDI(Q))OH, 5, are reported.

The effect of varying pH and solvent on the absorption behavior of both ligands and complexes have been investigated. According to the IR spectra, the ligands act as monobasic bidentate and coordination takes place in the enol tautomeric form.
