Abstract

As a continuation of our previous studies on copper(II) complexes with a bidentate Schiff base derived from 5-bromosalicylaldehyde and α-aminopyridine, we have investigated the electronic spectra of the cobalt(II) complex with this ligand. The complex is a red crystalline compound soluble in common solvents, such as chloroform, dioxane, dimethyl formamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, and methanol. The time-elapsed spectral measurements of the complex and ligand, as well as conductivities of the complex in chloroform and dioxane solutions, are presented and discussed. Molar conductivities indicate that the complex exists as a nonelectrolyte in nonpolar solvents and as a 1:1 or 1:2 electrolyte in polar solvents. The ligand-field parameters (CFM/AOM) for the complex in chloroform solution are estimated and discussed.
