Synthesis, spectral, thermal and optical properties of Schiff-base complexes derived from 2(E)-2-((z)-4-hydroxypent-3-en-2-ylideneamino)-5-guanidinopentanoic acid and acetylacetone

摘要

New metal complexes derived from the in situ reaction of Cu(II), Co(lI), Ni(II) and Zn(II) acetates with the Schiff-base ligand (H2L) resulted from the condensation of 2-amino-5-guanidinopentanoic acid (arginine) and acetylacetone have been synthesized. The resulting complexes have been characterized by, elemental analyses, ES-MS, IR, Raman spectra, UV-Vis., (HNMR)-H-1, ESR, thermal analyses (TGA and DTG) and magnetic measurements. The results showed that, The Schiff-base ligand acts as bi-negative tridentate coordinating via azomethine nitrogen, enolic carbonyl oxygen and carboxylate oxygen after displacement of hydrogen. The thermodynamic parameters E*, Delta H, Delta G and Delta S of the isolated complexes have been, calculated. The optical band gap (E-g) values of Cu, Co, Ni and Zn were found to be 3.3, 3.4, 3.7 and 4.3 eV, respectively, arising from direct transitions. Optical band gap measurements indicate the semi-conductivity nature of these complexes. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
