A new PVC membrane ion selective electrode which is highly selective towards Ni(II) ions was constructed using a Schiff base containing a binaphthyl moiety as the ionophore. The sensor exhibited a good Nernstian response for nickel ions over the concentration range 1.0x10(-1)-5.0x10(-6) M with a lower limit of detection of 1.3x10(-6) M. It has a fast response time and can be used for a period o...

The mercury (II) complex, Hg (Meca2en)I2 (1), containing bidentate Schiff base ligand  Meca2en = N,N′-bis[(E)-2-benzylidenepropylidene]ethane-1,2-diamine, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses (CHN) and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The crystal structure of 1 was determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Structural investigation shows that 1 crystallizes in a monoclinic s...

The title complex, [Ni(C20H14ClN3O)], with an asymmetrically chloride-appended Schiff base ligand has been synthesized and structurally characterized at 100 K. In the compound, the central nickel(II) ion has a square-planar coordination geometry with N3O donors of the π-conjugated tetra-dentate Schiff base ligand. In the crystal, the complexes are connected into an inversion dimer via an Ni⋯Ni ...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ni(C(18)H(24)N(2)O)(2)](NO(3))(2), consists of one half of the centrosymmetric nickel(II) complex cation and a nitrate anion. The Ni(II) atom, lying on an inversion center, is four-coordinated by the phenolate O atoms and imine N atoms of two Schiff base ligands, forming a square-planar geometry. The O- and N-donor atoms are mutually trans. In the cry...

A new unsymmetric thioether diamine N - ( 2 - ( 2 - aminophenylthio) ethyl) benzene - 1 , 2 - diamine was prepared through the nucleophilic substitution of cysteaminium chloride with 1 - chloro - 2 - nitrobenzene and then the nitro groups of prepared compuond converted to the amine by zinc powder and ammonium chloride. Then, unsymmetric Schiff bass ligand 2 - ((( 2 - (( 2 - (( 2 - (( 2 - hydrox...

The title compound, [Ni(C(25)H(19)N(4)O(2))(2)], which was obtained by the reaction of nickel(II) perchlorate with 2,6-diformyl-4-methyl-phenol and (tri-2-pyridylmeth-yl)amine in methanol solution, is a discrete monometallic complex. The Ni(II) atom is six-coordinated by the phenolate O, imine N and pyridine N atoms from two tridentate Schiff base ligands in a distorted NiN(4)O(2) octa-hedral g...

The title dinuclear nickel(II) complex, [Ni(2)Cl(4)(C(11)H(10)N(2)O)(2)], lies on a centre of symmetry located at the centroid of the four-membered ring formed by the two Ni atoms and the bridging chloride ions. The Ni(II) atom is five-coordinated in a square-pyramidal geometry by the imine and pyridine N atoms of the Schiff base ligand, and by one terminal and two bridging Cl atoms. The Ni⋯Ni ...
