Abstract: | Summary The complexes, [NiL2]Br2 (L=2-methyl-1, 2-propanediamine), [NiL2(H2O)2]SeO4·2H2O, [NiL2]X2·2H2O (X=0.5SO4 or 0.5SeO4) and [NiL2(NCS)2] have been prepared and investigated thermally. Upon heating, [NiL2]Br2 exhibits reversible thermochromism from yellow to blue: [NiL2]X2·2H2O (X=0.5SO4 or 0.5SeO4) undergoes dehydration accompanied with irreversible thermochromism from yellow to blue yielding [NiL2X2], whereas [NiL2(H2O)2]SeO4·2H2O (blue) transforms irreversibly into [NiL2SeO4] (blue). [NiL2]X2 (X=0.5SO4 or 0.5SeO4), prepared from their corresponding diaquo complexes by the temperature arrest technique, shows irreversible thermochromism from yellow to blue without showing any peak in the d.t.a./d.s.c. curves. [NiL2(NCS)2] (blue) undergoes a thermally induced phase transition without any visual change. All the yellow species are square planar; the blue species are octahedral. These colour changes are due to configurational changes; the phase change in [NiL2(NCS)2] is probably due to conformational changes in the diamine chelate rings. |
