Coordination Polymers. IV. Physicochemical Studies on Chelate Polymers of Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) with a Schiff Base of 4,4′-(4,4′-Biphenylylene Bisazo)di-(salicylaldehyde) with m. Toluidine

Coordination polymers of Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) with a Schiff base derived from 4,4′ - (4,4′ -biphenylylene bisazo) di (salicylaldehyde) and m-toluidine have been prepared. All the polychelates are dark colored and insoluble in common organic solvents. Magnetic susceptibility and electronic and IR spectra of the polychelates have been studied. All the polychelates except Cu(II) show octahedral structures while Cu(II) polychelate is suggested to be a square planar.     

Interaction of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) with N,N′-(aldose)2-thiocarbohydrazide: synthesis,electrochemistry, and spectral characterization

Complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) with N,N′-(aldose)₂–thiocarbohydrazide (LH₂) were synthesized, isolated as solid products and characterized by analytical means as well as by spectral techniques, FTIR, ¹H NMR, EPR, UV spectroscopy, and CD. All the metal ions formed M[LH]X complexes. Molar conductance values in DMF indicate non-electrolytic complexes. In DMSO with tetramethylammonium chloride supporting electrolyte, the copper complex displays irreversible cyclic voltammetric responses with E _p near ?0.621 and 0.461 V versus Ag/AgCl at scan rate of 0.1 V s^?1. Probable structures for the complexes are proposed.
