Schiff bases are multi-purpose ligands that are synthesized by condensing primary amines with carbonyl groups in aldehydes or ketones. In this work, my ligand, [2-methyl-4-((E)-((2-(((Z)-(3-hydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methylpyridine-4-yl)methylene)amino)pyridine-3-yl)imino)methyl)-5-(hydroxymethyl)pyridine-3-ol] (H2L) , was preparated from the reaction of 2,3-diaminopyridin and pyridoxal. Ni and Cu Complexes based on this ligand were also synthesized and the construction of the ligand and the […]
