title: First raw transition metal complexes of salicylidene and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthylidene-N-cyanoacetohydrazone.
abstract: Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of salicylidene-N-cyano-acetohydrazone H2L1 and 2-hydroxy-l-naphthylidene-N-cyanoacetohydrazone H2L2 have been prepared in ethanolic solution and characterized by analytical, spectral, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductivity and TGA measurements. The analytical data show that all the complexes derived from H2L1 and H2L2 are formed in molar ratios 1M:2L, except the complexes of Mn(II), Co(II) and Cu(II) acetates of H2L2 and the complexes of Mn(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) acetates and CuCl2 of H2L1 are formed in 1:1 molar ratios. The conductance data show that all metal complexes are non-electrolytes. Electronic absorption spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements proved that the prepared complexes have octahedral configuration except [Co(HL2)OAc] which has tetrahedral structure. The ligand field parameters were calculated for the Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes and the data show that the covalent character of the metal ligand sigma-bond is low. The ESR parameters of the Cu(II) complexes at room temperature were calculated. Thermal TGA for some solid complexes are reported.
