Studies on mononuclear chelates derived from substituted Schiff-base ligands (part 6): synthesis and characterization of a new 3-ethoxysalicyliden-<b> <i>p</i> </b>-aminoacetophenoneoxime and its complexes with cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II)

Abstract

Schiff-base complexes of cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II) and, zinc(II) with 3-ethoxysalicyliden-p-aminoacetophenoneoxime (HL) were prepared and characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, IR, 1H- and 13C-NMR, electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, molar conductivity and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). A tetrahedral geometry has been assigned to the complexes.
