Synthesis and Characterization of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) Complexes of 3-[(2,4-Dinitrophenyl)hydrazono]butane-2-one Oxime

Abstract

In this study, Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes of 3-[(2,4-dinitrophenyl)hydrazono]butane-2-one oxime were synthesized and characterized by means of IR, UV-Vis, 1H NMR spectroscopic techniques, magnetic measurements, and elemental analyses. The ligand (HL) behaves as a monoanionic bidentate ligand coordinating via azomethine nitrogen of the hydrazone and the oxime oxygen with the displacement of a hydrogen atom from the oxime group. © Pleiades Publishing, Inc., 2006.
