Spectrophotometric Study of Complexation Between Some New N2O2-Schiff Bases and Some Transition Metal Ions in Nonaqueous Solvents

Abstract

The complexation reaction between some transition and heavy metal cations and some new N2O2Schiff bases in acetonitrile (AN) or methanol (MeOH) as nonaqueous solvents at 25°C and 0.05 M tetraethylammonium perchlorate (TEAP) were investigated by spectrophotometric method. The stoichiometry and overall stability constants of complexes have been evaluated by computer refinement of abs-mole ratio data, using the KINFIT program. All investigated metal ions form 1:1 ML, 1:2 ML2or 2:1 M2L complexes with studied ligands. The effect of structure on the complexation was investigated.
