Synthesis, spectral characterization, thermal and photoluminescence properties of Zn(II) and Cd(II)-azido/thiocyanato complexes with thiazolylazo dye and 1,2-bis(diphenylphoshino)ethane.

A series of complexes of the type [M(L)(dppe)X2]; where M=Zn(II) or Cd(II); L=4-(2'-thiazolylazo)chlorobenzene (L1), 4-(2'-thiazolylazo)bromobenzene (L2) and 4-(2'-thiazolylazo) iodobenzene (L3); dppe=1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane; X=N3- or NCS- have been prepared and characterized on the basis of their microanalysis, molar conductance, thermal, IR, UV-vis and 1H NMR spectral studies. IR spectra show that the ligand L is coordinated to the metal atom in bidentate manner via azo nitrogen and thiazole nitrogen. An octahedral structure is proposed for all the complexes. The thermal behavior of the complexes revealed that the thiocyanato complexes are thermally more stable than the azido complexes. All the complexes exhibit blue-green emission with high quantum yield as the result of the fluorescence from the intraligand emission excited state.

Synthesis, structural characterization, thermal and electrochemical studies of mixed ligand Cu(II) complexes containing 2-phenyl-3-(benzylamino)-1,2-dihydroquinazoline-4-(3H)-one and bidentate N-donor ligands.

Some mixed ligand Cu(II) complexes of the type [Cu(L)(en)X(2)] (1a-3a), [Cu(L)(en)](ClO(4))(2) (4a), [Cu(L)(phen)X(2)] (1b-3b) and [Cu(L)(phen)](ClO(4))(2) (4b) [where L = 2-phenyl-3-(benzylamino)-1,2-dihydroquinazoline-4-(3H)-one; en = ethylenediamine; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline; X = Cl(-), N(3)(-) and NCS(-)] have been prepared. The complexes were characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic moment, IR, UV-vis, mass, ESR and thermal studies. On the basis of electronic spectral data and magnetic susceptibility measurement octahedral geometry has been proposed for 1a-3a and 1b-3b and square-planer geometry for 4a and 4b. The ESR spectral data of complexes provided information about their structure on the basis of Hamiltonian parameters and degree of covalency. The electrochemical behaviour of mixed ligand Cu(II) complexes was studied which showed that complexes of phen appear at more positive potential as compared to those for corresponding en complexes.

Characterization and electrochemical studies of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes with 2-mercapto-3-substituted-quinazolin-4-one and 1,10-phenanthroline or ethylenediamine as ligands.

Some mixed ligand complexes of the type [M(L(1) or L(2))(phen or en)(H(2)O)Cl], where M=Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II); HL(1)=2-mercapto-quinazolin-4-one; HL(2)=2-mercapto-3-phenyl-quinazolin-4-one; phen=1,10-phenanthroline; en=ethylenediamine have been prepared. All complexes were characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements, IR, UV-vis, ESR and powder X-ray diffraction studies. IR spectra of these complexes reveal that the complex formation occurred through both nitrogen and sulphur atoms. On the basis of electronic spectral data and magnetic susceptibility measurement octahedral geometry has been proposed for the complexes. The ESR spectral data of the Cu(II) complexes showed that the metal-ligand bonds have considerable covalent character. X-ray diffraction studies of Cu(II) complexes are used to elucidate the crystal structure. The electrochemical behaviour of mixed ligand Ni(II) complexes was studied which showed that complexes of phen appear at more positive potential as compared to those for corresponding en complexes.
