Synthesis and Structure of Metal Complexes of 1-(1-R-3-Methylpyrazole-5-onilidene-4)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline Derivatives

Twenty new complexes were synthesized by reacting Co(II), Cu(II), Zn, Cr(III), Fe(III), Cd and Ag salts with 3,3-dimethyl-1-(3-methylpyrazole-5-onilidene-4)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (L¹), spiro{cyclohexane-1,3"-[1-(1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazole-5-onilidene-4)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline]} (L²), and 3,3-dimethyl-1-(1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazole-5-onilidene-4)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (L³). These compounds were studied by IR and electronic absorption spectroscopy. The type of coordination of their ligands was discussed on the basis of the results obtained and X-ray diffraction data for L³ and [CuL₂ ² Cl₂] · 2L² obtained previously.
