Abstract The present thesis entitled ¨Transition metal complexes of isatin-3-oxime¨ comprises three chapters. Chapter one:- This chapter concerned with concepts, preparation, modes of bonding, importance and metal complexes of oximes. It also includes the literature survey on the preparation of isatin-3-oxime ligand and its transition metal complexes. Chapter two:- This chapter is related to the experimental part, the list of chemicals and different standardized instruments (such as UVVis, 1HNMR, IR, magnetic Gouy balance, pH, TGA and conductivity) that are used in synthesis, characterization and investigation of the ligand and its complexes. Di-μ-oxo bimolybdenum complex of general formula Mo2O4- (H2ISMO)2(THF)2 ( THF= tetrahydrofuran) was synthesized in two steps starting with the reaction of Mo(CO)6 with 2,2’- bipyridine then followed by the addition of isatin-3-oxime ligand. Moreover, dichromuim oxo complex of general formula Cr2O4(H2ISMO)2 was prepared in high yield by the reaction of chromium hexa carbonyl with H2ISMO in sun light. Chapter three:- The results and discussion are given in this chapter. Initial characterization based on the elemental and mass analysis has suggested that the proposed structures are Mo2O4(H2ISMO)2(THF)2 and Cr2O4(H2ISMO)2. The infrared studies were useful in assigning the coordination mode of the isatin-3-oxime ligand to the molybdenum metal centers in the complex. The electronic absorption spectrum revealed two bands assignable to the intraligand π-π* and oxygen-to molybdenum charge transfer transitions. The thermogravimetric analysis gave more insight into the composition and the thermal stability of the complex. The magnetic susceptibility measurements for the dimolybdenum complex can fit with the proposed dimeric structure containing two Mo(IV) centers and bonded through the two Mo-O-Mo bridge. Also, the infrared studies were useful in assigning the coordination mode of the isatin-3-oxime ligand to the chromium metal. The electronic absorption spectrum revealed two bands attributed to π-π* and chromium(IV). |
