The asymmetric unit of the title coordination polymer, [Cu(C(18)H(16)Cl(2)N(2)O(2))](n), consists of a Schiff base complex in which the Cu(II) atom adopts a square-pyramidal coordination geometry, being coordinated by two N and two O atoms of symmetry-related ligands and by a third O atom from a complex related by an inversion center. In the structure, a crystallographic twofold rotation axis b...

Transition metal complexes containing Schiff base ligands are of interest to model the active sites of biologically important molecules. In particular, Schiff base derivatives of hydrazones exhibit various bioactivities and play vital role in certain physiological functions as well. Hydrazones and their metal complexes exhibit wide range of biological and pharmaceutical activities that includes...

The title compound, [Cu2(C9H10NO2)4], is built of discrete centrosymmetric dimers. The Cu(II) atoms are each five coordinated by two deprotonated Schiff base ligands that are bonded differently to the metal atoms. Of the two phenolate O atoms, one is coordinated to one Cu(II) atom, whereas another bridges the two metal atoms. The basal plane of the square pyramid around Cu(II) atoms is formed b...

New series of Schiff base ligand H(2)L and their Cu(II) and Mn(II) complexes derived from azosulfapyrimidine were synthesized and characterized by elemental and thermal studies conductance measurements IR, electronic and EPR spectra. 3D modeling of the ligand indicate that azo group does not participate in complex formation and surface potential on one of the ligand under study indicate that el...

Two new metal complexes involving Schiff base ligands, namely, [Pd(L1)2] (1) and [Zn(L2)2] (2), [HL1: 2,4-dibromo-6-((E)-(mesitylimino)methyl)phenol and HL2: 2-((E)-(2,6-diisopropylphenylimino)methyl)-4,6-dibromophenol], have been solvothermally synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR-spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, and single-crystal X-ray di...

New dibutyltin (IV) complexes of Schiff base derived from 5-chloroindoline-2,3-dione, indoline2,3-dione with amino acids (tryptophan, alanine and valine) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, electronic spectra, conductance measurements, and biological activity. The analytical data showed that the Schiff base ligand acts as bidentate towards metal ions via the azomethine...

In the title complex, [NiSm(C(19)H(20)N(2)O(4))(NO(3))(3)(CH(4)O)(2)]·2CH(3)OH, the Ni(II) ion is coordinated by two O atoms and two N atoms of a deprotonated Schiff base ligand and by two O atoms of two methanol ligands in a slightly distorted octa-hedral geometry. The Sm(III) ion is coordinated by six O atoms from three chelating nitrate ligands and four O atoms from a Schiff base ligand in a...

The asymmetric unit of the title coordination polymer, [Cu(C(18)H(16)Br(2)N(2)O(2))](n), consists of a Schiff base complex in which a crystallographic twofold rotation axis bis-ects the central C-C bonds of the n-butyl spacers of the designated Schiff base ligands, making symmetry-related dimer units, which are twisted around Cu(II) atoms in a bis-bidentate coordination mode. In the crystal, th...

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Pd(C15H13FNO)2], contains one half of the mol-ecule with the Pd(II) cation lying on an inversion centre and is coordinated by the bidentate Schiff base anion. The geometry around the cationic Pd(II) centre is distorted square planar, chelated by the imine N- and phenolate O-donor atoms of the two Schiff base ligands. The N- and O-donor atoms of the two...

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Ni(C14H11FNO)2], contains one-half of the mol-ecule with the Ni(II) cation lying on an inversion centre coordinated by a bidentate Schiff base anion. The cationic Ni(II) center is in a distorted square-planar coordination environment chelated by the imine N and phenolate O donor atoms of the two Schiff base ligands. The N and O donor atoms of the two l...
