The coordination chemistries of the tetradentate N2O2-type ligands N-(2-pyridylmethyl)iminodiethanol (H2pmide) and N-(2-pyridylmethyl)iminodiisopropanol (H2pmidip) have been investigated with nickel(ii) and cobalt(ii/iii) ions. Three novel complexes prepared and characterized are [(Hpmide)2Ni3(CH3COO)4] (1), [(Hpmide)2Co3(CH3COO)4] (2), and [(pmidip)2Co3(CH3COO)4] (3). In 1 and 2, two terminal ...

Novel hydroxyamidinate complexes of cobalt(II) are presented, together with their electrochemical and spectroscopic properties. An unusual d(7) square-planar coordination around the cobalt(II) center exists and was confirmed by chemical oxidation to its Co(III) species. The Co(II) complex is difficult to reduce, but its facile oxidation suggests that it may be useful as an electron donor in pho...

a new series of transition metal complexes of co(ii), ni(ii), cu(ii) and zn(ii), has beensynthesized from the knoevenagel condensate schiff base ligand(l) derived from β-ketoanilideand furfural with o-phenylenediamine and diethylmalonate. structural features were determinedby spectral and analytical techniques. square-planar geometry has been adopted by thecomplexes except cobalt complex which ...

The title complex, [CoNa(CO5P)(H2O)5]n, was obtained by reacting sodium phosphono-formate with cobalt nitrate. The complex contains cobalt(II) and sodium ions, which are bridged by the O atoms of two aqua ligands. The Co(II) ion is octahedrally coordinated by three phosphonoformato ligands (one bi- and the other monodentate) and by two O atoms from the bridging aqua ligands. The sodium cation i...

A recent technique involving the use of paper electrophoresis is described for the study of equilibria in binary complex systems in solution. The stability constants of the ML and ML2 complex species of some metal ions, namely beryllium(II) and cobalt(II), with hydroxyproline were determined in 0.1 mol L perchloric acid and a temperature of 35 °C. The logarithm stability constants of the ML and...

The mixed Co(II)/Ni(II) complex, [Co2.67Ni1.33L₄(CH₃COO)₂][BPh₄]₂·0.75H₂O where HL = 4-(salicylaldimine)antipyrine, was isolated as an orange solid from the reaction of 4-(salicylaldimine)antipyrine, with mixed cobalt(II) acetate and nickel(II) acetate in ethanol. The complex was characterized by Frustrated Total Internal Reflection (FTIR), UltraViolet Visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), X-ray singl...

The crystal structure of cyclic AMP-catabolite activator protein (CAP) from Escherichia coli containing cobalt(II) chloride and ammonium sulfate is reported at 1.97 Å resolution. Each of the two CAP subunits in the asymmetric unit binds one cobalt(II) ion, in each case coordinated by N-terminal domain residues His19, His21 and Glu96 plus an additional acidic residue contributed via a crystal co...
