Synthesis and spectroscopic study of new ligand 3-(acetylthioureido)propanoic acid with their metal complexes

Abstract

A new ligand 3-(3-acetylthioureido)propanoic acid (ATA) was prepared through the reaction of acetyl chloride, ammonium thiocyanate and b- alanine. For this study the following methods were used: FT-IR, 1H-NMR 13C-NMR spectra and the Elemental analysis. complexesis of M+2=Mn,Cu,Ni,Co,Zn,Cd and Hg derived from3-(3-acetylthioureido) propanoic acid have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic suscpility, FT-IR, UV Vis spectra, The results have shown complexation with b-alanine derivative with metal ion in a 1:2 ratio. The spectral characterization confirms the formation of ligand and complexes. The evidences from the above results suggest the ligand to be abi dentate ion.
