Abstract

A new metal complexes have been synthesized by a reaction of metal compounds contained Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) with two kinds of ligands that are 2-carboxy benzaldehyde 4-methylbenzoylhydrazone(CBMH) and 2-carboxy benzaldehyde picolinoyl hydrazine (CBPH), the ligands (CBMH and CBPH) were prepared by condensation of 2-carboxy benzaldehyde with 4-methylbenzoyl hydrazide or picolinoyl hydrazide, respectively. In fact, complexes[M(L-H)2]. xH2O were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility, and spectral measurements (UV-Vis, IR,). The hydrazones CBMH and CBPH act as monobasic tridentate ligands, in all their complexes. The ligand CBMH coordinated to the metal ions through the azomethine nitrogen, the carboxyl group oxygen, and the amide carbonyl group oxygen atoms, while the ligand CBPH coordinated through the carboxyl group oxygen, the azomethine nitrogen, and the pyridine ring nitrogen atoms. Physico-chemical studies suggest octahedral geometry for all metal(II) complexes.
