Abstract

Nano-structures of a new discrete coordination compound of divalent cobalt with the pyrazol (pzH) containing the terminal isothiocyanate anions, [Co(pzH)2(NCS)2] (1), with discrete molecular architecture in solid state was synthesized by a sonochemical method. The new nanostructure was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, IR, and elemental analysis. The supramolecular features in these complexes are guided and controlled by weak directional intermolecular interactions. The discrete molecules interact with each other through labile interactions creating a 3D supramolecular framework. The CoO nanoparticles were obtained by thermolysis of 1 at 180 °C with oleic acid as a surfactant.
