Abstract
A novel series of organotellurium compounds based on formazane derivatives with a general formula of ArTeBr3 4 and Ar2TeBr2 5 [Ar = 2-[{4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl}{4-nitrophenyldiazenyl}methylene amino]-5-nitrophenyl] were synthesized by refluxing mercurated formazane derivative ArHgCl with TeBr4 in two different mole ratios of 1:1 and 2:1, respectively, in dry dioxane solvent under an argon atmosphere. Compounds ArTeBr3 and Ar2TeBr2 were then reduced by the action of an ethanolic solution of hydrazine hydrate to obtain Ar2Te2 6 and Ar2Te 7, respectively. The ligand properties of bis(2-[{4-hydroxy-3-methoxy phenyl}{4-nitrophenyl diazenyl}methylene amino]-5-nitrophenyl) telluride (7) were examined toward several metal ions through its reaction with K2PtCl4, PdCl2 · 2 H2O, K2PtCl6, RhCl3 · 3 H2O, CoCl3 · 6 H2O and NiCl2, respectively. These compounds were characterized by FTIR, UV-Vis,1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry as well as by elemental analysis, thermal analysis, magnetic susceptibility and molar conductivity. The identification of the synthesized complexes 8-13 proved that the complexes of Pt(II), Pd(II) and Ni(II) have square pyramidal geometries and are diamagnetic, while the complexes of Pt(IV), Rh(III) and Co(III) have octahedral shapes with the same magnetic behavior. The telluride 7 behaves as a neutral pentadentate ligand.
