Abstract

The syntheses of complexes of Cu(II) with biological active ligand, pyridoxal thiosemicarbazone (PLTSC) and its derivative, pyridoxal S-methylisothiosemicarbazone, are described. All coordination compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity and infrared spectra. The crystal and molecular structure of complexes [{Cu(μ-PLTSC)(H2O)}2](SO4)2·6H2O (2) and [{Cu(μ-PLTSC)(H2O)}2](SO4)2·2H2O (2a) is determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, too. The thermal decomposition of all the ligands and complexes was determined by simultaneous TG/DSC measurements. The decomposition mechanisms were compared and analyzed from the aspects of the relationships between the structures of the compounds and their thermal decomposition pattern.
