Interaction of manganese(II), iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) with acetylhydrazine, formed in situ; first crystal structure of tris(acetylhydrazine) nickel(II) perchlorate

A series of transition metal complexes of the type [M(ah)₃](ClO₄)₂ (1–6) [M = Mn^II, Fe^II, Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II, ah = acetylhydrazine] have been prepared by the reaction of M(ClO₄)₂ · 6H₂O with acetylhydrazine formed in situ by the reaction of hydrazine hydrate and acetylsalicylic acid methyl ester. The chelating behaviour of acetylhydrazine and overall geometry of these complexes have been spectroscopically investigated by means of FT-IR, ¹H-n.m.r. and electronic spectral techniques, as well as by elemental analysis data, molar conductance values and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Single X-ray structure determination of complex (4) revealed three acetylhydrazine ligands coordinated to nickel ion in a bidentate manner maintaining an octahedral environment. In all other complexes too, an octahedral geometry has been proposed on the basis of results obtained by various physico-chemical studies.     

Synthesis and chemical characterization of biologically important complexes of vanillin thiosemicarbazone with manganese(II), iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II), cadmium(II), and mercury(II)

Probable structures of these complexes are suggested on the basis of elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic moment and electronic and i.r. spectral data. The fungicidal activity of VTSC and the isolated complexes has been evaluated on pathogenic fungi,Alternaria (Sp.),Paecilomyces (Sp.) andPestalotia (Sp.).On leave from the University of Myosore.     

Copper(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) complexes ofN,N′, N″, N‴-tetra(2-cyanoethyl)-1,4,8, 12-tetra-azacyclopentadecane

Summary Reaction of 1,4,8, 12-tetra-azacyclopentadecance ([15])-aneN₄) with an excess of acrylonitrile gives theN-tetracyanoethylated ligand (L). Several new complexes of this ligand with nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) have been prepared and characterised.

New complexes of iron(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) with 2-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxalidene-2-aminophenol

Summary Fe^III, Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II complexes of a new Schiff base, 2-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxalidene-2-aminophenol (PTCAP), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements, and by u.v.-vis., i.r. and e.p.r. spectral observations. The studies indicate an octahedral structure for the complexes with the general formula [ML₂] (M = Co^II, Ni^II or Cu^II.; L = PTCAP) or [M′(OH)L₂] (M′ = Fe^III). The i.r. spectra suggest that the ligand acts as a tridentate (NNO) donor towards Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II, and, in the Fe^III complex, one of the two ligand molecules acts as a bidentate (NO) donor and the other as a tridentate donor. The M?ssbauer spectrum of the Fe^III complex suggests the presence of a spin equilibrium at room temperature. Cyclic voltammograms are also recorded for the Cu^II and Fe^III complexes.     

N-Phthaloylglycinate ternary complexes with cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) and cadmium(II) metal ions and aromatic mono,bi and tridentate amines

For imi and mimi ternary complexes, the general formula [M(imi/mimi)₂(N-phthgly)₂]·nH₂O, where M = Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II applies. For Cd^II ternary complexes with imi, [Cd(imi)₃(N-phthgly)₂]·2H₂O applies. For the bi and tridentate ligands, ternary complexes of the formula [M(L)(N-phthgly)₂]·nH₂O were obtained, where M = Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II; L = bipy, phen, tptz and terpy. In all complexes, N-phthgly acts as a monodentate ligand, coordinating metal ions through the carboxylate oxygen, except for the ternary complexes of Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II with mimi and Cu^II and Zn^II with imi, where the N-phthgly acts as a bidentate ligand, coordinating the metal ions through both carboxylate oxygen atoms.

Cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of 1-hydroxy-2-naphthyl(4-X-styryl)ketones

Summary Metal(II) bis-chelates of the type ML₂nB [M=Co^II, Ni^II, and Cu^II, L=1-hydroxy-2-naphthyl(4-X-styryl)ketone, (X=H, Me, Cl, MeO), B=H₂O, Py; n=0, 2] have been prepared and characterised by element analyses, i.r., ligand field spectra, magnetic moments and thermal studies. The copper(II) chelates are anhydrous monomers oftrans-square-planar configuration. The cobalt(II) and nickel(II) chelates, obtained as dihydrates, possess a high-spintrans-octahedral structure. Their anhydrides are polymeric. All the pyridine adducts have high-spintrans-octahedral geometry. The (M–O), order, namely Cu >Ni>Co, parallels the Irving-Williams order. The weak ligand field strength of 1-hydroxy-2-naphthyl(4-X-styryl)ketones is ascribed to inhibition of extensive conjugation arising from deviation of the naphthoyl group from planarity.     

Copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes of pyridyl and quinolylhydrazones of isatin and methylisatin: Ligand dependent stereochemistry

Summary [M^II(Lig)X] (M = Cu^II, Ni^II or Co^II and Lig = deprotonated pyridylhydrazone, (IPH-H), quinolylhydrazone of isatin (IQH-H) andN-methylisatin (MIQH-H)) have been characterized by magnetic susceptibility measurements, optical spectra and infrared spectral studies. [M^II(IPH-H)Cl] (M = Ni^II and Co^II) are tetrahedral while [M^II(MIQH-H)X] (M = Ni^II or Co^II and X = Br or Cl), [Ni^II(IQH-H)Br] and [Cu^II(IPH-H)Cl] are planar.     

Synthesis and spectral studies of copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(II) and vanadyl(II) complexes of tridentate Schiff bases of 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-3-oxo-N,1-diphenyl-5-(phenylmethylene)-2-naphthalenecarboxamide

Summary Metal(II) chelates of Schiff bases derived from the condensation of 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-3-oxo-N,1-diphenyl-5-(phenylmethylene)-2-naphthalenecarboxamide with o-aminophenol (KAAP), o-aminothiophenol (KAAT) or o-aminobenzoic acid (KAAB) have been prepared and characterized. The complexes are of the type [M(N₂X)]₂ for M = Cu^II and M(NX)₂·nH₂O for M = Ni^II, Co^II and VO^II (X = phenolic oxygen, thiophenolic sulphur or carboxylic oxygen; n = 0 or 2). Conductivity data indicate that the complexes are non-ionic. The Schiff bases behave as dibasic tridentate ligands in their copper(II) complexes and as monobasic bidentate ligands in their nickel(II), cobalt(II) and vanadyl(II) complexes. The subnormal magnetic moments of the copper(II) complexes are ascribed to an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction arising from dimerization. Nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes are trans octahedral whereas vanadyl(II) complexes are square pyramidal     

Complexes of NS and NSO donor ligands. Nickel(II), copper(II) and cobalt(II) complexes of glyoxal bis(morpholineN-thiohydrazone) and diacetyl bis(morpholineN-thiohydrazone)

Summary Reactions of glyoxal bis(morpholineN-thiohydrazone), H₂gbmth, with NiCl₂·6H₂O, Ni(OAc)₂·4H₂O, Ni(acac)₂· H₂O, CuCl₂·2H₂O, Cu(OAc)₂·H₂O, Cu(acac)₂, CoCl₂· 6H₂O, Co(OAc)₂·4H₂O and Co(acac)₂·2H₂O yield complexes of the type [M(gbmth)], [M=Ni^II, Cu^II or Co^II].

Cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of 5-(2-carboxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin

A new series of hexacoordinate cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of 5-(2-carboxyphenylazo)-2-thiohydantoin HL having formulae [LM(OAc)(H₂O)₂] · nH₂O (M = Co^II, Cu^II and Ni^II), [LMCl(H₂O)₂] · nH₂O (M = Co^II and Ni^II), [LCuCl(H₂O)]₂ · 2H₂O, [LCu(H₂O)₃](ClO₄) and [LCu(HSO₄)(H₂O)₂] were isolated and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductivities and magnetic susceptibilities, and by i.r., electronic and e.s.r. spectral measurements, as well as by thermal (t.g. and d.t.g.) analyses. The i.r. spectra indicate that the ligand HL behaves as a monobasic tridentate towards the three divalent metal ions via an azo-N, carboxylate-O and thiohydantoin-O atom. The magnetic moments and electronic spectral data suggest an octahedral geometry for Co^II complexes, distorted octahedral geometry for both Ni^II and Cu^II complexes with a dimeric structure for [LCuCl(H₂O)]₂ · 2H₂O through bridged chloro ligands. The X-band e.s.r. spectra reveal an axial symmetry for the copper(II) complexes with unsymmetrical M_s = ± 1 signal and G-parameter less than four for the dimeric [LCuCl(H₂O)]₂ · 2H₂O. The thermogravimetry (t.g. and d.t.g.) of some complexes were studied; the order and kinetic parameters of their thermal degradation were determined by applying Coats–Redfern method and discussed.

All the complexes are non-electrolytes and the cobalt(II) complexes are lowspin, the nickel(II) complexes are diamagnetic and the copper(II) complexes are paramagnetic. The ligands chelate via two C=N groups and two deprotonated enolate groups. The e.s.r. spectra of the copper(II) complexes indicate a tetragonally distorted dimeric structure. The X-ray diffraction parameters for [CoL] and [NiL] correspond to a tetragonal crystal lattice.     

Metal-ion directed synthesis of binuclear octaazamacrocyclic complexes of manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) and their physico-chemical studies

A novel series of 16-membered binuclear complexes of octaazatetraimine ligand, [M = Mn^II, Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II; X = Cl or NO₃] have been synthesized by metal template condensation reactions of o-phenylenediamine with N,N′-diacetylhydrazine in 1:1:1 molar ratio in methanol. The proposed stoichiometry and the bonding of the macrocyclic moiety to metal ions along with the overall stereochemistry have been derived from the results of elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility, conductivity data and the spectral data revealed from FT-IR, , ESI mass, UV–visible studies. An octahedral geometry has been envisaged for Mn^II, Co^II, and Ni^II complexes while a slight distortion in octahedral geometry has been noticed for Cu^II complexes. The low conductivity data of all the complexes suggest their non-ionic nature.

The data reveal that the reaction of Cu(ClO₄)₂ (1 mol) in EtOH, with all ligands, produces complexes of the type CuL(ClO₄)(H₂O).nH₂O. Nickel(II) and cobalt(II) perchlorates react only with HL¹ and HL² to produce the complexes ML(ClO₄)(H₂O)₃ (where M = Ni^II, L = L^– and L², M = Co^II, L = L¹) and Co(HL₂)₂-(ClO₄)₂.2H₂O. The spectral data show that the ligands behave as monobasic bidentate in their azo forms, except HL² which reacts with cobalt(II) as a neutral bidentate ligand in its hydrazone form.

On the basis of these studies, a six coordinate octahedral geometry for these complexes has been proposed. The biological activities of the metal complexes have been tested in vitro against a number of pathogenic bacteria to assess their inhibiting potential. Most of the compounds have been found to exhibit remarkable antibacterial activities.     

The preparation and characterization of some new nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) and cadmium(II) complexes of the pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde Schiff bases ofS-alkyl esters of dithiocarbazic acid

Summary New complexes of general formulae [Ni(HL)₂], [ML]·H₂O and [Cu(HL)X] (H₂L = pyrrole-2-aldehyde Schiff bases ofS-methyl- andS-benzyldithiocarbazates; X = Cl or Br; M = Ni^II, Cu^II, Zn^II or Cd^II) were prepared and characterized by a variety of physicochemical techniques.
