Studies on 2-acetylpyridine-2-furgylhydrazone complexes of some bivalent transition metal ions

Abstract

Metal(II) complexes of the compositions M(HL)Cl2 [M = Mn, Co, Zn, Cd, Hg], Ni(HL)2Cl2·4H2O, Cu(HL)Cl2·3H2O, M(L)2·nH2O [M = Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn] and the oxovanadium(IV) complex, VO(L)2, LHL = 2-acetylpyridine-2-furoylhydrazone] have been prepared and characterized. Molar conductivities indicate non-electroytic behaviour of the complexes. Magnetic and spectral data such as infrared, electronic and ESR of the complexes are used to establish the stereochemistry and mode of bonding in these complexes. © 1986, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
