The ligand is principally bonded through the unprotonated nitrogen atom and in some complexes also through the carbonylic oxygen atom. The zinc halide complexes are tetrahedrally coordinated, the trifluoroacetate ion is coordinated as a monodentate ligand.     

Preparation,infrared, Raman and N.M.R. spectra of N,N′-Diethylthiourea complexes with zinc(II), cadmium(II) and mercury(II) halides

Several complexes of N,N′-diethylthiourea (Dietu) with zinc(II), cadmium(II) and mercury(II) halides were prepared and characterized by i.r.

Polymeric structures consisting of square-planar geometry with sulphur-bridged metal atoms are proposed in each case.     

Complexes of zinc,cadmium and mercury(II) with the zwitter-ionic form of NN′-ethylenebis (salicylideneimine)

The Schiff base NN′-ethylenebis(salicylideneimine), H₂ salen reacts with hydrous and anhydrous Zinc, Cadmium and Mercury(II) salts to give complexes M(H₂ salen)X₂·nH₂O (M = Zn, Cd, Hg; XCl, Br, I, NO₃; MZn, X₂SO₄; n = 0?2). Spectroscopic and other evidence indicated that; (i) halide and sulphate are coordinated to the metal ion, whereas the nitrate group is ionic in mercury nitrate compound and covalently bonded in zinc and cadmium nitrato complexes, (ii) the Schiff base is coordinated through the negatively charged phenolic oxygen atoms and not the nitrogen atoms, which carry the protons transferred from phenolic groups on coordination, (iii) therefore the coordination numbers suggested are 4-, in mercury and 4- or 6- in zinc and cadmium Schiff base complexes.

Solid-state vibrational spectroscopy: Part 11. An infrared and raman vibrational spectroscopic study of metal(II) halide aniline complexes

Infrared (4000?200 cm^?1) and Raman (3500?50 cm^?1) spectra are reported for metal(II) halide aniline complexes of the following stoichiometries: (MX₂an₂) (M  Co, Ni or Hg, X  Cl; M  Mn, X  Cl or Br; M  Zn or Cd, X  Cl, Br or I); (MX₂an₃) (M  Mn, X  Cl or Br; M  Ni, X  Cl); (CdCl₂an) and an assignment is proposed for all the observed bands. Low-temperature (83 K) IR spectra are also reported and it is noted that whilst the aniline ring and CH mode values are virtually insensitive to temperature, the NH₂ rocking and metal-ligand stretching mode values increase with decreasing temperature, whilst the NH₂ stretching mode values decrease with decreasing temperature.     

Zinc(II), cadmium(II) and mercury(II) halide pyrrolidine-2-thione complexes

Summary White crystalline complexes of general formula ML₂X₂, where M = Zn, Cd, Hg; X = Cl, 13r, I and L = pyrrolidine-2-thione, were prepared and studied by i.r. spectroscopy in the 4000-200 cm^–1 range.

Summary Cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of 3, 5-dimethyl-1-(4, 6-dimethyl-2-pyrimidyl)pyrazole (DPymPz) have been synthesized and characterized. Magnetic and electronic spectral features show that both [M(DPymPz)₂X₂]·nH₂O [M=cobalt(II) or nickel(II), X=Cl, Br, I, SCN, NO₃, ClO₄ or BF₄ andn=0 or 2] and [Cu(DPymPz)X₂(H₂O)₂] (X=Cl, Br or SCN) are essentially octahedral species. The i.r. spectra indicate that DPymPz is a neutral bidentate ligand being the pyrazolyl and one pyrimidyl ring nitrogen. The X is bonded to the central metal ion in a majority of the complexes.Part 5: N. Saha and D. Mukherjee,Polyhedron,5, 1317 (1986).

The [M₂(A-A)₂(NCS)₂] (ClO₄)₂ · nCH₂Cl₂ complexes are novel in the sense that they contain bridging thiocyanate together with ionic perchlorate. The stereochemical assignments have been made on the basis of i.r. and u.v. spectra as well as conductance data.     

ZINC(II), CADMIUM(II), MERCURY(II) AND LEAD(II) SEMIQUINONE-TYPE COMPLEXES OF A NEW SCHIFF-BASE LIGAND: ANTIBACTERIAL STUDIES

Abstract

A new Schiff-base ligand LH₂, has been prepared by reaction of 2,9-diformv 1-1,10-phenan-throline with 2,3-diamino-l,4-naphthoquinone. The formation and characterization of complexes of Zn(II), Cd(II), Hg(II) and Pb(II) with the semi-oxidized ligand LH is described. The M(LH)X₂ (X = CI, Br and AcO) radical species are paramagnetic and the observed EPR signals in the solid state at room temperature, with g values close to the electron free g value are proof of the semiquinonic character of the ligand. The antibacterial activity of the ligand and the metal complexes prepared were tested against four bacteria strains and compared with the activity of penicillin.     

Cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and copper(I) complexes of 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole and 2,5-bis(methylmercapto)-1,3,4-thiadiazole

Summary Some cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and copper(I) complexes of 2-mercapto-5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole (mttz) and 2,5-bis(methylmercapto)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (bmttz) have been prepared and studied by conductometric and magnetochemical methods and by electronic and i. r. spectroscopy. The complexes CoX₂ · 2L (L=mttz, X=Cl, Br or I; L=bmttz, X=Br or I), CoCl₂ · bmttz are pseudotetrahedral, and the complexes NiX₂ · mttz (X=Cl or Br), NiCl₂ · 1.3 bmttz, NiBr₂ · 1.5 bmttz are pseudooctahedral. The complex Co₃(OAc)₂ · 4(mttz-H) · 2H₂O has an undefinite constitution. The polynuclear complexes CuCl₂ · 1.3 mttz and CuBr₂ · 1.2 mttz contain presumably pseudotetrahedral chromophores, the chloride having a subnormal magnetic moment. The CuX₂ · 2 bmttz (X=Cl, Br or NO₃) complexes have a six coordination with bridging ligand molecules. In the CuX · 2 mttz (X=Cl, Br or ClO₄) complexes the anions are coordinated, while in the CuClO₄ · 2 bmttz complex the perchlorate anion is ionically bonded.     

2-Amino-3-picolineN-oxide complexes formed from various copper(II) Salts

Summary Copper(II) complexes of 2-amino-3-picolineN-oxide (3 MA) have been isolated as perchlorate, tetrafluoroborate, nitrate, chloride and bromide salts, and characterized by spectral methods (i.e., i.r., u.v.-vis and e.s.r.). Variation of the ligand to copper(II) salt ratio yielded solids having the following empirical formulas: Cu(3 MA)₄X₂ (X = ClO₄, BF₄ or NO₃), Cu(3 MA)₂X₂ (X = NO₃, Cl or Br) and Cu(3 MA)X₂ (X = Cl). In addition, a deprotonated ligand complex, Cu(3 MA-H)₂, was prepared by treating an aqueous slurry of Cu(3 MA)₄(ClO₄)₂ with NaOH. This complex is considered to be square planar, but does associate to form a dimer in nonpolar solvents such as CHCl₃. The complexes involving coordinated anions appear to be polymeric and to contain halogen orN-oxide oxygen bridging ligands.     

Palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes of rhodanine and 3-methylrhodanine

Summary The following palladium(II) and platinum(ll) complexes of rhodanine (HRd) and 3-methylrhodanine (MRd) have been prepared: Pd(HRd)_1.5Cl₂, Pd(HRd)₂Br₂, Pd(HRd)₂Br₂ · 0.25 EtOH, M(MRd)₂X₂ [M = Pd, X = Cl (0.25 EtOH) or Br; M = Pt, X = Cl or Br], Pd(MRd)₃Br₂, and M(MRd)₄(ClO₄)₂ (M = Pd or Pt). The ligands are coordinated to the metal through the thiocarbonylic sulphur atom. Pd(HRd)_1.5Cl₂ has presumably a structure such as (X = Cl or Br) complexes have a trans-planar coordination. Pd(MRd)₂X₂ (X = Cl or Br) complexes arecis-planar coordinated. Pd(MRd)₃Br₂ has presumably a square coordination with two MRd molecules and two CI ionscis-coordinated in the equatorial plane, and a MRd molecule and a Cl ion weakly bonded in apical position. The M(MRd)₄(ClO₄)₂ complexes have square planar coordination.Author to whom all correspondence should be addressed.     

Complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) with 4-amino-3,5-dimethylisoxazole

Summary Complexes of the type M(4-ADI)_nX₂ · mH₂O (where 4-ADI = 4-amino-3,5-dimethylisoxazole; n = 1–4; X = Cl, Br, I, SCN, ClO₄; m = 1–4) have been studied by i.r. and electronic spectroscopy, magnetic and conductivity measurements. The ligand behaves as a monodentate -NH₂ bonded species in monomeric complexes, but as a bridging ligand-NH₂ and -N(ring) bonded species in polymeric complexes. All the compounds have an octahedral stereochemistry, except Co(4-ADI)₂X₂ (X = Cl, Br, I) complexes, which are tetrahedral.
