X-ray diffraction, spectroscopic and DFT studies on nickel(II)-triphenylphosphine complexes of 2-hydroxyacetophenone thiosemicarbazones
Özet
This work presents a combined experimental and theoretical study on new synthesized ONN and ONS chelating 2-hydroxyacetophenone thiosemicarbazone ligands and their nickel(II) complexes with triphenylphosphine co-ligand. The 5-bromo-2-hydroxyacetophenone thiosemicarbazone ligand (L-1) coordinates to nickel through the phenolic-O, azomethine-N and thiole-S atoms and the complex [Ni(L-1) (PPh3)] (1) is formed an ONSP donor set with P atom of triphenylphosphine ligand. The 5-bromo-2-hydroxyacetophenone-S-methyl-thiosemicarbazone ligand (L-2) is functional a thioamide nitrogen instead of a sulfur atom, so complex [Ni(L-2)(PPh3)] (2) have ONNP donor set. The spectroscopic properties of all compounds have been determined by IR, H-1 NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopy techniques and the crystal structure of L-1, 1 and 2 have also been studied using X-ray diffraction. The molecular geometries obtained by X-ray analyzes in the ground state were compared with the optimized geometries which were calculated using the DFT/B3LYP method. The 6-311G(d,p) basis set for C, H, N, O, P, S atoms and LANL2DZ basis set for Ni atom were chosen in all theoretical calculations. In addition to molecular geometries, the vibrational frequencies, electronic transitions and H-1 NMR chemical shifts of the compounds were computed and compared with the experimental values. The electronic absorption spectra of the both complexes were predicted by using the time-dependent DET method. The HOMO-LUMO analyses were carried out and the chemical reactivity parameters (chemical hardness and softness, electronegativity, chemical potential and electrophilicity index) were calculated for studied compounds.
