Abstract

We presented the synthesis of a novel Schiff base and its complexation properties with some transition metal ions in this work. For this, the 2,3,4,6,7,10,11 hexahydroxytriphenylene (HHTP) as starting material was synthesized according to known procedure. Moreover, the 2-((2-chloroethylimino)methyl) phenol material was prepared with reaction of salicylaldehyde and 2-chloroethylamine hydrochloride. To give the 2,3,4,6,7,10,11-hexakis(salicyliminoethoxy)triphenylene (HSE-TP) as a novel Schiff base, the HHTP were treated with 2-((2-chloroethylimino)methyl)phenol in acetone media. Complexation properties of this Schiff base were investigated towards Ni(II), Cu(II), Co(II), Zn(II), Pd(II) and Cd(II) as transition metals. The structures of these new compounds (ligand and complexes) were characterized with FT-IR, magnetic susceptibility measurement, thermal methods (TGA), (1)H NMR and elemental analyses.Copyright © 2010 Elsevier B.V.
