The pyridine-coordinated Cu(II) atom in the title Schiff base complex, [Cu(C(15)H(11)N(3)O(5))(C(5)H(5)N)], is O,N,O'-chelated by the doubly deprotonated Schiff base ligand. The metal centre is in a square-planar coordination geometry.

Schiff bases and their metal complexes in the mixtures of ionic liquid (IL) + organic solvent have shown great potential in attractive oxidation catalytic processes. The efficiency of such a process is strongly dependent on the various molecular interactions occurring between components. Thermodynamic properties of these systems can provide valuable information about structural interactions. Th...

In the title dinuclear complex, [CuGd(C(20)H(22)N(2)O(4))(NO(3))(3)], the Cu(II) ion is located in the inner N(2)O(2) cavity of the Schiff base ligand and adopts a distorted square-planar geometry. The Gd(III) ion is ten-coordinate being bound to ten O atoms, four from the Schiff base ligand and six from three bidentate nitrate anions. The Cu(II) and Gd(III) ions are linked by two phenolate O a...

The title complex, [Fe(C(12)H(9)ClNO(2))(3)], is a mononuclear Schiff base iron(III) compound. The Fe atom is six-coordinated by three phenolic O and three imine N atoms from three Schiff base ligands in an octa-hedral geometry.

Schiff base complexes of transition metals are of particular interest to inorganic chemists because of their structural, spectral and chemical properties, which are often strongly dependant on the nature of the ligand structure. Large number of metal (II) complexes with Schiff-base ligands has been extensively studied for their interesting structural specialties, applications and properties. Th...
