Abstract

The study of the adduct formation of Ni(II)di(2,4-dimethylphenyl)cabazonate has been undertaken by synthesising and characterising it by magnetic susceptibility, IR and 1H-NMR spectral measurements. The Ni(II) chelate forms adducts with heterocyclic nitrogen bases, spectrophotometeric method has been employed for the study of the adduct formation in a monophase chloroform. Both bidentate and unsaturated monodenate heteronuclear nitrogen bases form hexa-coordinated adducts with 1:1 stoichiomety (metal chelate, base). However, the saturated nitrogen bases form penta-coordinated adducts with 1:1 stoichiometry. The results are discussed in terms of basicity and steric factors of the bases.
