Lanthanide Complexes of Substituted β-Diketone Hydrazone Derivatives : Synthesis, Characterization, and Biological Activities

الملخص EN

A series of β-diketone hydrazone derivatives have been synthesized through condensation of β-diketone with aromatic aldehydes followed by reaction with phenylhydrazine.

The structure of the ligands and intermediates are well defined through elemental and spectroscopic analyses.

These hydrazones are potential ligands toward lanthanide metal ions.

New complexes of trivalent Scandium, Yttrium, Lanthanum, and Cerium have been synthesized.

The composition of these complexes is discussed on the basis of elemental analyses, IR, magnetic moments, and thermal analyses.

The prepared complexes were screened for antibacterial and antifungal properties and have exhibited potential activity.
