Abstract
A series of acyclic Schiff base podands 14–19 with lipophilic amide and ester end groups were synthesized in good yield and in a simple way. Their transition metal ions complexation was studied using conductometric method in acetonitrile (AN) at 25 °C. Schiff base podands 14–16 showed a continuous decrease in the molar conductances in their complexation with Hg2+, Pb2+, Cu2+, Zn2+ and Cd2+ which begins to level off at a mole ratio of 1:1 crown-to-metal indicating the formation of a stable 1:1 complexes. The order of the stability constants of the metal ions studied with the Schiff base podands 14, 15 and 16 is: Hg2+ > Pb2+ > Cu2+ > Zn2+ > Cd2+ > Ag+. Metal ion complexation by acyclic diamide or diester podands involves presumably the oxygen atoms of the carbonyl groups in addition to the nitrogen atoms of the imino groups.
