Summary
CoII, NiII, CuII, CdII and HgII complexes of 7-formyl-8-hydroxyquinoline (HFHQ) have been prepared, and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivities, electronic and i.r. spectra, and magnetic measurements. It was found that the ligand acts as a neutral monodentate or a monobasic bidentate donor. The CoII, NiII and CuII complexes possess, respectively, tetrahedral, octahedral and square-planar structures based on their magnetic and electronic spectral data. The electrical conductivities of HFHQ and its metal complexes were measured at different temperatures and their activation energies were calculated. The values obtained for the CoII, NiII, CdII and HgII complexes agree fairly well with those reported for semiconductors. The ligand was tested as a corrosion inhibitor for aluminium; the limiting concentration of HFHQ to give maximum efficiency (99.2%) is 10−3 mole dm−3 at 22°C. The metal-ligand ratios and apparent formation constants for the species generated in ethanol solution were determined spectrophotometrically.
