Abstract
Ruthenium(III) Chiral Schiff base complexes derived from L-histidine with pyridine 2-carboxyaldehyde, 5-methoxy and 5-chloro salicylaldehyde have been synthesized. The complexes were characterised by elemental analysis, IR, UV-visible spectroscopy, conductance measurement, magnetic susceptibility, electrochemical studies, optical rotation and circular dichroism spectra. The conformational aspects regarding the asymmetric arrangement of substituted Schiff base ligands around ruthenium(III) ion have been discussed. All the complexes show an irreversible redox potential in the range −0.36 to −0.40 volts corresponds to Ru(III)/Ru(II) redox couple. In the case of the 5-substituted salicylaldehyde this show linear dependence on Hammet parameter o p.
