Complexes of 2-thioacetic acid benzothiazole with some metal ions

Abstract

New metal complexes of the ligand 2-thioacetic acid benzothiazole with the metal ions Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Sn(II) were prepared in alcoholic medium. The prepared complexes were characterized by FTIR Spectroscopy, electronic spectroscopy, 1HNMR, 13CNMR, magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements. From the spectral measurements, monomer structures for the complexes were proposed. Square planar geometry was proposed for the copper complex. The other complexes were proposed to be tetrahedral. © 2009 Science Publications.
