Synthesis and Characterization of Some Novel Dialkyldithiophosphate Derivatives of Macrocyclic Complexes of Pb(II) Having N2 S2 Potential Donors in 14- to 20-Membered Rings

Abstract

Dialkyldithiophosphate derivatives of macrocyclic complexes of Pb(II), having N2S2 potential donors, of the general formula, [Pb(L)S2P(OR)2] (where L = macrocyclic ligands L1, L2, L3, L4 & L5 and R = CH3-, C3H7 n- & C3H7 i-) have been Synthesized from the reactions of [Pb(L)X2] (where X = Cl, NO3, or CH3COO) with sodium dialkyl dithiophosphates in 1:2 molar ratios in THF. Fifteen new derivatives have been synthesized by the combination of five macrocyclic complexes of 14–20 member rings with three different types of dialkyldithiophosphate. These compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, molecular weight determination, IR, 1H NMR, 13C, and 31P NMR. Molecular weight determinations of these complexes indicate their monomeric nature. An octahedral structure is proposed.
