The Schiff base complexes of Pb(II) and Sn(II) with bidentate (NO), [M(sal-An)2] (sal-An = aniline salicylideneiminato); tridentate (ONO), [M(sal-OAP)H2O)] (sal-OAP = orthoaminophenol salicylideneiminato); and tetradentate (N2O2), [M(sal-o-phdn)] (sal-o-phdn = N,N'-ophenylene bis(salicylideneiminato) have been synthesized. The infrared spectra were recorded and full assignments of all observed ...

BACKGROUND The oxidative transformation of benzoin to benzil has been accomplished by the use of a wide variety of reagents or catalysts and different reaction procedures. The conventional oxidizing agents yielded mainly benzaldehyde or/and benzoic acid and only a trace amount of benzil. The limits of practical utilization of these reagents involves the use of stoichiometric amounts of corrosiv...

The synthesis, characterization and biological activity of Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes derived from tridentate Schiff base ligand 3-hydroxy-4-(pyridine-2-yl methylene amino) benzoic acid (HL) was obtained by the condensation of 2-Pyridine carboxaldehyde with 4-amino 3-hydroxy benzoic acid has been described. The complexes were characterized based on elemental analyses, molar conductivity measur...

In the title hydrated complex, [Co(C(11)H(15)N(2)OS(2))(2)]·H(2)O, the Co(II) atom (site symmetry 2) is coordinated by two O,N,N'-tridentate Schiff base ligands, resulting in a very distorted cis-CoO(2)N(4) octa-hedral geometry for the metal ion. In the crystal, the water mol-ecule (O-atom site symmetry 2) inter-acts with nearby complex mol-ecules by way of bifurcated O-H⋯(O,S) hydrogen bonds.

Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes with a Schiff base, N-(2-furanylmethylene)-2-aminothiadiazole have been prepared and characterized by their physical, spectral and analytical data. The synthesized Schiff-bases act as tridentate ligands during the complexation reaction with Co(II) and Ni(II. metal ions. They possess the composition [M(L)(2)]X(n) (where M=Co(II) or Ni(II), L=, X=NO(3) (-), SO(4) (2-),...

In the title compound, [Zn(C(20)H(16)N(3)S(2))(2)]·CH(3)CN, two different Schiff base moieties coordinate to the central Zn(II) ion as tridentate N,N',S-chelating ligands, creating a distorted octa-hedral environment [the smallest angle being 73.24 (6)° and the widest angle being 155.73 (7)°], with the two S atoms in cis positions. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two coordinat...

The tetra-nuclear title complex, [Ni4(C14H11NO2)4(CH3OH)4]·0.8CH3OH, has a distorted cubane topology shaped by four Schiff base ligands. The cubane [Ni4(μ3-O4)] core is formed via the O atoms from the Schiff base ligands. The octa-hedrally coordinated NiII ions occupy alternating vertices of the cube. Each NiII ion is coordinated by one O,N,O'-tridentate dianionic ligand, two O atoms of oxidoph...

In the title benzil-idene Schiff base molybdenum(VI) complex, [Mo(C(15)H(12)N(2)O(3))O(2)(CH(3)OH)], the Mo(VI) ion is coordinated by two oxide O atoms and by two O atoms and one N atom of the tridentate N'-(3-meth-oxy-2-oxidobenzyl-idene)benzo-hydrazidate (L) Schiff base ligand. The methanol O atom completes the distorted octa-hedral configuration of the Mo(VI) atom. Strong O-H⋯N hydrogen bond...

The title compound, [Zn(C(15)H(14)N(3)S(2))(2)], contains two chemically equivalent Schiff base anions that are coordinated to the Zn(II) ion as tridentate N,N',S-chelating ligands, creating a distorted octa-hedral environment [the smallest angle being 75.40 (6)° and the widest angle being 162.87 (6)°], with the two S atoms in cis positions. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two...
