“…Hydrazine complexes of the first row transition metal ions with a variety of carboxylic acids have been reported in the literature (Schmidt, 1984). These include simple aliphatic monocarboxylic acids (Ravindranathan et al, 1983;Sivasankar et al, 1997; aliphatic dicarboxylic acids (Gajapathy et al, 1983;Yasodhai et al, 2000;Govindarajan et al, 1995), aromatic mono and dicarboxylic acids (Kuppusamy et al, 1995 and aliphatic and aromatic hydroxyl acids (Yasadhai et al, 1999;Kuppusamy, et al, 1996), halo acids (Sivasankar et al, 2004), amino acids Sivasankar, 2005) and heterocyclic carboxylic acids (Premkumar et al, 2002). However hydrazine complexes of first row transition metal with unsaturated carboxylic acids are limited except maleate and fumarate derivatives (Govindarajan et al, 1995).…”
