Synthesis and Characterization of Transition Metal Complexes with 2,2'-[(Propylene-1,3-diyldioxy)bis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenol

Abstract

In anhydrous ethanol medium, a series of transition metal complexes have been synthesized by the reaction of 2,2'-[(propylene-1,3diyldioxy)bis(nitrilomethylidyne)]diphenol (H2L) with Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II) and Mn(II) acetate hydrate. All these metal complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra, UV-VIS spectra, molar conductances and TG-DTA analyses.
