Chemical and Electrochemical Synthesis, Structure, and Properties of Metal Chelates of Tridentate N,S-Containing Azomethinazo Ligands

Resumo

Novel Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II) complexes of 5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-[(4-phenylazo)anilinemethylylidene]- 2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazole-3-thione and 5-methyl-4-[4-methyl-2-(4-methylphenylazo)anilinemethylylidene]- 2-phenyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazole-3-thione, i.e. ligands containing the phenylazo group in the ortho and para positions of the aniline fragment, were synthesized by the chemical and electrochemical methods. The complexes and ligands were characterized by IR, ¹H NMR, X-ray absorption spectroscopy and magnetochemistry. The azo group of the ligands is not involved in coordination to the metal.
