The iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), and copper(I1) complexes with a series of hydrazones of 2,6-diacetyIpyridine have been prepared. The ligands include: 2,6-diacetylpyridinedihydrazone, H ; 2,6-diacetylpyridinebis(methylhydrazone), MH; 2,6-diacetylpyridinebis(phenylhydrazone), PH; and 2,6-diacetylpyridinebis(dimethylhydrazone), dMH. From the sixcoordinate nickel(I1) complexes, the spectrochemical series is H (Dq = 1258 cm-I) >> d M H (Dq = 1119 emT1) = M H (Dg = 1117 cm-l) > PH (Dq = 1063 cm-I). The variation reveals the intramolecular steric requirements in these complexes.The iron(I1) complexes FeL2+, all of the spin-paired configuration, provide an illustration of the pitfalls associated with ferromagnetic impurities. A series of one-to-one complexes may contain examples of five-coordination.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
