A series of new copper(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), manganese(II), iron(III), and uranyl(VI) complexes of the Schiff base hydrazone 7-chloro-4-(benzylidene-hydrazo)quinoline (HL) were prepared and characterized. The Schiff base behaves as a monobasic bidentate ligand. Mononuclear complexes with the general composition [ML2(Cl)m(H2O)2(OEt)n] x xEtOH (M = Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Mn(II), Fe(III) o...

2-hydroxy-5-chloro-3-nitroacetophenone isonicotinoyl hydrazone as a Schiff base ligand and its complexes with Cr(III), Mn(III), Fe(III), VO(IV), Zr(IV) and UO2(VI) metal ions have been synthesized. The ligands as well as their metal complexes were well characterized using various physicochemical techniques such as elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements, magnetic measurements, therma...

The title Schiff base compound, C(16)H(16)BrNO(3), adopts an E configuration with respect to the C=N bond. The dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 64.02 (6)°.

In the title complex, [Co(C(15)H(12)N(3)O(4))(2)Cl(C(6)H(7)N)], the Co(III) ion is coordinated by two N atoms and two O atoms from two deprotonated Schiff base ligands, one N atom from a 4-methyl-pyridine ligand and one Cl atom, forming a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The Co(III) ion is displaced by 0.038 (2) Å from the equatorial plane towards the axial Cl atom.

The title compound, C(21)H(15)NO(4), was synthesized by reducing the Schiff base obtained from acenaphthenequinone and ethyl-4-aminobenzoate. The dihedral angle between the essentially planar 1,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[de]isoquinoline ring system [maximum deviation = 0.061 (2) Å] and the benzene ring is 75.08 (10)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected via weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hyd...

The title mononuclear nickel(II) complex, [Ni(C(18)H(18)N(2)O(4))(H(2)O)], possesses crystallographic mirror symmetry. The Ni atom is five-coordinated in a square-pyramidal geometry, with two imine N and two phenolate O atoms of the Schiff base ligand in the square plane, and the water O atom in the axial position. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are linked via inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bon...

Both ferromagnetic and ferroelectric properties were observed in two enantiomerically pure nanoscale manganese cluster complexes supported by chiral Schiff base ligands, each of which comprises a 22-nucleus mixed-valence manganese(II/III) supratetrahedral cluster cation and an equilateral-triangle trinuclear manganese(III) cluster anion with C(3) symmetry.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(16)H(12)Br(4)N(2)O(2), comprises half of a potential tetra-dentate Schiff base ligand. The whole mol-ecule is generated by an inversion center located in the middle of the C-C bond of the ethyl-ene segment. There are intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds making S(6) ring motifs. In the crystal, no significant inter-molecular inter-actions are observed.

The title compound, C28H33N2S2P, adopts the thione tautomeric form, as supported by the C-S distance [1.6744 (18) Å]. The Schiff base exhibits an E conformation about the C=N bond but a Z conformation about the C-N bond. The terminal chain is disordered over two sets of sites with an occupancy ratio of 0.732 (3):0.268 (3). In the crystal, pairs of N-N-H hydrogen bonds between the thione groups ...

The crystal and molecular structure o f the title complex was determinated by single crystal X-ray diffraction (R = 0.066 for 1059 observed reflections). The approximately square-pyram­ idal coordination o f Cu(II) results from donor atoms 0 (12), 0 (1 ), N (l) , 0 (5 ) o f one H20 mo­ lecule as well as the tridentate Schiff base dianion ligand and from the weakly bonded 0(11) donor atom of one...
