Synthesis, Characterization, and Theoretical Study of Some New Organotellurium Compounds Derived from Camphor

The present work describes the synthesis of a variety organotellurium compounds. first part new series compounds containing azomethine groups. Reaction (E)-(4-((1,7,7-trimethyl bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ylidene)amino)phenyl)mercury(II)chloride and (E)-(5-methyl-2-((1,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ylidene)amino)phenyl) mercury(II)chloride with tellurium tetrabromide in 2:1 mole ratio yielded tellurated Schiff bases Ar2TeBr2 (where Ar = 1-(C9H16C=N)C=N)C6H4 1-(C9H16C=N)C=N)-4-CH3C6H3) respectively. Reduction organyl dibromide by hydrazine hydrate obtained corresponding tellurides (i.e., Ar2Te) good yields. Characterization prepared was carried out using infrared spectrum (FT-IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), elemental analysis (CHN). molecular structure investigated density functional theory hybrid (B3LYP), basis set 6-31G Geometrical structure, HOMO surfaces, LUMO energy gap have been produced throughout geometry optimization. contours for were geometrical donor acceptor properties studied comparing compounds' highest occupied orbital energies (HOMO). study aims to prepare derived from aniline, p-toluidine, camphor their derivatives bases.
