Abstract

Two novel complexes, C38H48CoN2O2 (I) and C38H48N2O2Zn (II), were prepared through an analogous procedure with a corresponding metal chloride and a bulky Schiff base ligand (HL) which derived from rimantadine and salicylaldehyde in appropriate solvents, respectively. They were structurally characterized by the means of IR, UV-Vis, elemental analysis, molar conductance, PXRD and single-crystal X-ray diffraction (CIF files nos. 946735 (I), 893304 (II)). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that I belongs to the triclinic system, \(P\overline 1 \) space group; each asymmetric unit consists of one cobalt(II) complex and one lattice ethanol molecule. In each complex molecule, cobalt(II) atom is four-coordinated via two oxygen atoms and two nitrogen atoms from the deprotonated Schiff base ligands, forming an approximate planar geometry. The crystal structure also involves strong O–H···O intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the solvent alcoholic and phenol O atoms of complex molecule. Complex II belongs to the monoclinic system, Cc space group. Each asymmetric unit consists of one zinc(II) ion and two deprotonated ligands. Zinc(II) atom lies on a twofold rotation axis and is four-coordinated via two nitrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms from the Schiff base ligands, forming a distorted tetrahedral geometry.
