Cobalt, nickel, and copper coordination compounds with 3-phenylpropenal benzoylhydrazone [Articol]

Abstract

3-Phenylpropenal benzoylhydrazone (HL) reacts with cobalt, nickel, and copper chlorides, nitrates, and acetates to give coordination compounds MX 2 • nH2O [M = Co, Ni, Cu; X = Cl, NO3, HL = C6H5CH=CHCH=NNHC(O)C6H5; n = 0, 2] and ML2 • nH2O (M = Co, Ni, Cu; n = 1-3). Complexes MALCI (M = Co, Ni, Cu) were obtained by these reactions in the presence of amines (A = C5H5N, 2-CH3C5H 4N, 3-CH3C5H4N, 4-CH 3C5H4N). All the compounds have a monomeric structure. Azomethine (HL) in them behaves as a bidentate N,O-ligand. Thermolysis of the complexes involves the stages of dehydration (70-90°C), deaquation (145-155°C) or deamination (145-185°C), and complete thermal decomposition (330-490°C).
