Synthesis and characterization of new metal complexes of α-aminonitriles derived from p- toluidine and aromatic aldehydes

Abstract EN

New metal complexes of some transition metal ions Co (II), Cu (II) , Cd (II) and Zn (II) were prepared by their reaction with previously prepared ligands HLI= (P-methyl aniline) phenyl acetonitrile and HLII = (P-methyl aniline) –P– chloral phenyl acetonitrile.

The two ligands were prepared by Striker's procedure which includes the reaction of p- toluidine with Benz aldehyde and P- chlorobenzaldehyde respectively.

Structures were proposed depending on atomic absorption, i.r.

and u.v.v isible spectra in addition to magnetic susceptibility and electrical conductivity measurements.
