Crystal engineering with aroyl hydrazones of diacetyl monooxime – Molecular and supramolecular structures of two Ni(II) and two Zn(II) complexes
摘要:
Four new Schiff bases of aroyl hydrazides with diacetyl monooxime have been prepared, and Ni(II) and Zn(II) complexes of these ligands have been synthesized. Two Ni(II) and two Zn(II) complexes have been characterized by X-ray crystallography. The aroyl hydrazone ligands were designed in such a way that there is a systematic variation in the H-bond forming abilities of their aroyl moiety, e.g. both H-bond acceptor and donor (salicyloyl), only H-bond donor (anthraniloyl), only H-bond acceptor (isonicotinoyl). It is shown in this work that such a variation in the H-bond donor acceptor properties of the ligands leads to considerable diversity in their supramolecular architecture. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
