Coordination Compounds of Rare Earth Chlorides with the Schiff Base Derived from Vanillin and 2-Naphthylamine

摘要

Coordination compounds of rare earth chlorides with Schiff base derived from vanillin (3-methoxy-4-hydroxy-benzaldehyde) and 2-naphthylamine have been prepared and characterized. The general formula of the coordination compounds, LnL2Cl2(H20)2 Cl H20 (where Ln - La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho, Tm, Lu; L = Schiff base), are based on the elemental analyses, infrared spectra, ultraviolet spectra, Raman Spectra, Molar conductance and thermal analyses.
