Phenylazo and benzothiazolylazo derivatives of trifluoroacetylacetone andhexafluoroacetylacetone have been synthesized and characterized. Analytical and spectral datarevealed the existence of phenylazo derivatives in the intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded ketohydrazoneform while the benzothiazolylazo derivatives in the azo-enol form. The monobasicbidentate coordination of the phenylazo derivative...
