Summary

New complexes of general formulae [Ni(HL)2], [ML]·H2O and [Cu(HL)X] (H2L = pyrrole-2-aldehyde Schiff bases ofS-methyl- andS-benzyldithiocarbazates; X = Cl or Br; M = NiII, CuII, ZnII or CdII) were prepared and characterized by a variety of physicochemical techniques. The Schiff bases coordinate as NS bidentate chelating agents in [Ni(HL)2] and [Cu(HL)X], and as tridentate NNS chelates in [ML] (M = NiII, CuII, ZnII or CdII). Both the [Ni(HL)2] and [NiL] complexes are diamagnetic and square-planar. Based on magnetic and spectroscopic evidence, thiolate sulphur-bridged dimeric square-planar structures are assigned to the [Cu(HL)X] and [ML] (M = NiII or CuII) complexes. The complexes ML (M = ZnII or CdII) are polymeric and octahedral.
