Abstract

1,2-Diphenyl-2-(benzoylhydrazino)ethanol (DBE) and 1,2-diphenyl-2-(p-nitrobenzoylhydrazino)ethanol (DPNBE) form complexes of general formulae [M(H2L)2]X2 and [M2L2] (where M = Co or Ni, H2L and L are the neutral and dibasic forms of the ligands and X = Cl or NO3). The analytical, spectral, magnetic and physical studies show the complexes to be of two types, namely monomeric cationic species prepared in neutral media and neutral binuclear oxygen-bridged species formed in alkaline solution. The ligands are tridentate, coordinating through carbonyl (or enolic) oxygen, azomethine nitrogen and alcoholic oxygen atoms.
