Acylhydrazine derived furanyl and thienyl Schiff bases and their Cu(II) complexes have been prepared and characterized on the basis of their physical, spectral and analytical data. The preferred enolic form of the Schiff base function as a tetradentate ligand during coordination to the metal ion yielding a square planar complex. The Schiff bases and their complexes with different anions were te...

In the centrosymmetric dinuclear copper(II) title complex, [Cu(2)Br(2)(C(12)H(17)N(2)O)(2)]·H(2)O, each Cu(II) ion is five coordinated in a square-pyramidal geometry by the N,N',O-tridentate Schiff base, one Br atom and the bridging O atom of the centrosymmetrically related Schiff base. In the crystal, the water mol-ecules link the complex mol-ecules into infinite chains along the b axis via O-...

In the title dinuclear complex, [NiPr(C(19)H(20)N(2)O(4))(NO(3))(3)(CH(3)OH)(2)]·2CH(3)OH, the Ni(II) ion is coordinated by two O atoms and two N atoms of a Schiff base ligand and by two methanol ligands, forming a slightly distorted octa-hedral geometry. The Pr(III) ion is coordinated by six O atoms from three chelating nitrate ligands and four O atoms from a Schiff base ligand, forming a dist...

cu2o nanoparticles were synthesized by thermal treatment in liquid paraffin without any inert gas protection using nano structures of schiff base copper (ii) complex (1) as precursor. liquid paraffin was used as solvent and reductant. span 80 was applied to control the morphology of cuprous oxide nanoparticles. the nano structure of the complex was characterized by x-ray diffraction measurement...

Reaction between Schiff-base ligand and half-sandwich complex M(Pc)(acac) led to the isolation of new sandwich-type mixed (phthalocyaninato)(Schiff-base) di-lanthanide compounds M2(Pc)2(L)H2O (M = Dy, Gd) (1, 2) [H2Pc = metal free phthalocyanine, Hacac = acetylacetone, H2L = N,N'-bis(3-methyloxysalicylidene)benzene-1,2-diamine] with the triple-decker molecular structure clearly revealed by sing...

A visual pigment is composed of retinal bound to its apoprotein by a protonated Schiff base linkage. Light isomerizes the chromophore and eventually causes the deprotonation of this Schiff base linkage at the meta II stage of the bleaching cycle. The meta II intermediate of the visual pigment is the active form of the pigment that binds to and activates the G protein transducin, starting the vi...

Two biologically active Schiff bases, C13H10BrON (4), C13H9Br2O2N (5), were synthesized by the reaction of 2-aminophenol (1) with 3-bromobenzaldehyde (2) or 3,5-dibromo-4hydroxybenzaldehyde (3) in the presence of conc. H2SO4. The characterization of Schiff bases were carried out by using spectroscopic techniques including IR, H-NMR, FAB-MS along with elemental analyses. The Schiff bases were ch...

abstractinteraction of ni complex(salen= n, n´-ethylene bis(salicylideneimine)) with hen egg-white lysozyme (hewl) was studied by absorption spectroscopy, competitive binding study and thermal denaturation study. the protein binding affinity of ni complex was found to be (3.0×103m−1). the binding plot obtained from the absorption titration data gives a binding constant of 2.4 (± 0.3)×103 m-1. i...

Two acyclic Schiff-base ligands, bis-5,5′-(1,3-propanediyldiimino)-2,2-dimethyl-4-hexene-3-one and bis-5,5′-(1,3-ethanediyldiimino)-2,2-dimethyl-4-hexene-3-one, were used to complex homoleptic triethylaluminum and tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)amino]alu minum, respectively. The acid–base reactions proceeded in excellent yields with elimination of ethane or bis(trimethylsilyl)amine during in situ depr...

Thermal behavior including the cold crystallization of a Schiff base complex bearing two methyl groups was investigated. Additionally, effect alkoxy chain length studied.
