  • Title: Spectroscopic characterization of tetradentate macrocyclic ligand: its transition metal complexes.
    Author: Chandra S, Gupta LK.
    Journal: Spectrochim Acta A Mol Biomol Spectrosc; 2004 Oct; 60(12):2767-74. PubMed ID: 15350911.
    Abstract:
    Manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes are synthesized with a novel tetradentate ligand viz. 1,3,9,11-tetraaza-4,8,12,16-tetraoxo-2,6,10,14-tetrathiacyclohexadecane (L) and characterized by the elemental analysis, molar conductance measurements, magnetic susceptibility measurements, electron impact mass, 1H NMR, IR, electronic and EPR spectral studies. The molar conductance measurements of the complexes in DMSO correspond to be nonelectrolytic nature for Mn(II), Co(II) and Cu(II) while 1:2 electrolytes for Ni(II) complexes. Thus these complexes may be formulated as [M(L)X2] and [Ni(L)]X2 (where M: Mn(II), Co(II), and Cu(II) and X = Cl- and NO3-). On the basis of IR, electronic and EPR spectral studies an octahedral geometry has been assigned for Mn(II) and Co(II) complexes, square-planar for Ni(II) whereas tetragonal for Cu(II) complexes. The ligand and its complexes were also evaluated against the growth of bacteria and pathogenic fungi in vitro.
