Abstract
New complexes of dithiocarbamate of the general formula [M(3-MeoPrdtc)2] and [M(3-MeoPrdtc)2.nL] Where M= Fe(), Co(), Ni(), Cu() and Zn(), and (3-MeoPrdtc) =3-Methoxypropyldithiocarbamate, and n=2 when L= pyridine, Isoquinoline, γ-picoline, 3,5-lutidine, n=1 when L= ethylenediamine, (1,10)-phenanthroline, have been prepared and characterized by metal analyses, infrared, conductance measurements, electronic absorption spectra and suscetptibility measurements. Magnetic moment and electronic spectra, indicate that the complexes of the type [M(3-meoprdtc)2] are of tetrahedral geometry while the complexes of the type [M(3-meoprdtc)2.nL] have octahedral geometry.
Highlights
The bis-(dithiocarbamate) complexes [M(S2CNR2)2], where R = alkyl group, are the most common among other ligand and complexes
Transition metal dithiocarbamate complexes find use in diverse applications such as material science, medicine and agriculture (Shaheen et al, 2007) and possess interesting structural chemistry (Onwudiwe and Ajibade, 2011) that make their study continuously attractive, and biological activity most of these applications are based on the complexation properties of dithiocarbamate ligands with metal ions, especially with transition metal ions (Golcu, 2006)
The new ligand was prepared by the reaction of 3-methoxypropylamine with potassium hydroxide and added carbon disulphide: the complexes were prepared through direct reaction of the metal chlorides, FeCl2.XH2O or CoCl2.6H2O or NiCl2.6H2O or CuCl2. 2H2O and ZnCl2.unhydrous with the above ligand in (1:2) molar ratio
Summary
Transition metal dithiocarbamate complexes find use in diverse applications such as material science, medicine and agriculture (Shaheen et al, 2007) and possess interesting structural chemistry (Onwudiwe and Ajibade, 2011) that make their study continuously attractive, and biological activity (as antibacterial, cytostatic, antifungal and immunoregulatory) most of these applications are based on the complexation properties of dithiocarbamate ligands with metal ions, especially with transition metal ions (Golcu, 2006). In view of these interesting results, we have prepared a new dithiocarbamate ligand and its complexes with different metal ions and their nitrogeneous adducts
