A heterocyclic hydrazone ligand, pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde-2-pyridylhydrazone, HL, 1, was investigated as a new chromogenic agent for selective detection of Pd2+ The ligand HL, 1, undergoes 1.1 complexation with Pd2+ and Cu2+ to form complexes [Pd(L)Cl], 1a and [Cu(HL)Cl-2], 1b respectively The complex 1a gives a characteristic absorption peak at 536 run with distinct reddish-pink coloration. The change in color can easily be distinguished from other metal complexes by the naked eye. No obvious interference was observed in the presence of other metal ions (Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Al3+, Mn2+, Fe3+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Sn2+, Hg2+, Pb2+). The association constants, K-ass (UV-Vis), were found to be 5.52 +/- 0 004 x 10(4) for 1a and 4.94 +/- 0.006 x 10(4) for 1b at 298 K. On excitation at 295 nm, the ligand HL, 1 strongly emits at 372 nm due to an intraligand (1)(pi-pi') transition Upon complexation the emission peaks are blue shifted (lambda(ex) 295 nm, lambda(em) 358 nm for 1a and lambda(ex) 295 nm, 367 nm for 1b) along with a quenching (F/F-0 0.32 for 1a and 0 88 for 1b) in the emission intensity. OFT and TDDFT calculations were highly consistent with the spectroscopic behavior of the ligand and complexes. The molecular structure of the complex 1b has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
