Abstract

The reaction of 3-formylsalicylic acid with 2-aminoethanethiol produces 2-(1-carboxyl-2-hydroxyphenyl)thiazolidine (H2chptz) which remains in equilibrium in solution with its corresponding Schiff base, 3-carboxysalicylidenethioethanolimine (H3mcsalim) having an NSO-donor set of atoms. The reactions of the thiazolidine ligand with different metal salts leading to the synthesis of many new metal complexes and organometallic derivatives have been studied. For all the complexes the dianion of the Schiff base, H3mcsalim acts as a tridentate NSO donor ligand. The reactions of [(Hmcsalim)Ti(π-C5H5)Cl] and [(Hmcsalim)Sn(Me)Cl], isolated in this study, with Me3SiE (where, E stands for SMe, NMe2 and C≡CPh) have also been studied. The elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibilities, molar conductance values, EPR-study, CV, molecular weights and spectroscopic (UV-Vis, IR, 1H NMR) data characterize all the compounds under study. Based upon these data the geometry of the compounds has also been proposed.
