Abstract
Cobalt(II) complexes of the Schiff bases 1,2-(diimino-4′-antipyrinyl)ethane (GA) and 4-N-(4′-antipyrylmethylidene)aminoantipyrine (AA) have been prepared and characterised by elemental analysis, electrical conductance in non-aqueous solvents, i.r. and electronic spectra, as well as by magnetic susceptibility measurements. The complexes have the general formulae [Co(GA)X]X (X = ClO− 4 or NO3 −), [Co(GA)X2] (X = Cl−, Br− or I−), [Co(AA)2]X2 (X = ClO4 −, NO3 −, Br− or I−) and [Co(AA)Cl2]. GA acts as a neutral tetradentate ligand, coordinating through both carbonyl oxygens and both azomethine nitrogens. In the perchlorate and nitrate complexes of GA one anion is coordinated in a bidentate fashion, whereas in the halide complexes both anions are coordinated to the metal, generating an octahedral geometry around the Co ion. AA acts as a neutral bidentate ligand, coordinating through the carbonyl oxygen derived from the aldehydic moiety and the azomethine nitrogen. Both anions remain ionic in the perchlorate, nitrate, bromide and iodide complexes of AA, whereas both anions are coordinated to the metal ion in the chloride complex, resulting tetrahedral geometry around the Co ion.
