Cobalt(II) complexes of N-methyl phenyl, 1-phenylpiperazyl, and morpholinyl dithiocarbamates have been synthesized and characterized by UV–Visible, FTIR, ¹H-, ¹³C-NMR, and mass spectrometry. The spectroscopic data indicated that two ligands coordinated in bidentate chelating to the metal ion to form four-coordinate cobalt(II) complexes (1–3), which was confirmed by mass analysis (TOF MS ES⁺) of the complexes with m/z [M]⁺ = 450.98, 382.94, and 382.94 for 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Single crystal analysis of 2A and 3A show centrosymmetric mononuclear cobalt(III) bonded to three dithiocarbamate ligands forming a distorted octahedral geometry, indicating the cobalt(II) undergoes aerial oxidation to cobalt(III) during recrystallization. In addition, 2A crystallized with one solvated molecule of toluene. The redox behaviors of the complexes were studied by cyclic and square wave voltammetry in dichloromethane; the result revealed a metal centered redox process consisting of a one-electron quasi-reversible process assigned to Co(III)/Co(IV) oxidation and a corresponding Co(IV)/Co(III) reduction. Randles–Sevcik plots (anodic peak current versus the square root of the scan rate (I_p,a versus ν^1/2)) for the redox couples revealed diffusion-controlled behavior.

Synthesis and spectral feature of benzophenone-substituted thiosemicarbazones and their Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes

The ligational behavior of 2-hydroxybenzophenone and 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone N-substituted thiosemicarbazones towards Ni(II) and Cu(II) ions has been investigated. The isolated complexes were identified by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic moment, IR, UV-vis and ESR spectral studies. The IR spectra indicated that the investigated thiosemicarbazones lost the N(2) proton or the N(2) and OH protons and act as mononegative or binegative tridentate ligands. The ligands containing methoxy group facilitate the deprotonation of OH by resonance more than the SH. Most of the Ni(II) complexes measured subnormal magnetic moments due to square-planar+tetrahedral configuration and supported by the electronic spectra. The percentage of square-planar to tetrahedral was calculated and found in agreement with the ligand splitting energy (10Dq). Also, Cu(II) complexes measured subnormal values due to the interaction between copper centers; the lower the value the higher the interaction. It was found that the substitutent has a noticeable effect on the distortion of the complex. The ESR spectra of some solid Cu(II) complexes at room temperature exhibit g(parallel)>g( perpendicular)>2.0023 confirming a square-planar structure.
