Novel ligand (Cyclododecylidineamino)thiourea (CDDATU) and its Cadmium (II) complex were synthesized and characterized by IR, CHNS and Thermo gravimetric analysis.The complex was found to give highly crystalline, good quality, mono-dispersed Cadmium sulphide nanoparticles through polyol synthesis method using Glycerol as high boiling solvent. Characterization of Cadmium sulphide nanoparticles were done using SEM, EDX, TEM, UV, PL and PXRD studies.
