Summary

The Schiff bases a-(C5H4N)CMe=NNHCOR (R = Ph, 2-thienyl or Me), prepared by condensation of 2-acetylpyridine with the acylhydrazines RCONHNH2, coordinate in the deprotonated iminol form to yield the octahedral complexes, M[NNO]2 M = Co or Ni; [NNOH] = Schiff base and the square-planar complexes, Pd[NNO]Cl. The Schiff bases also coordinate in the neutral keto form yielding the octahedral complexes (M[NNOH]2)Z2 (M = Ni, Co or Fe; Z = C104, BF4 or N03) and complexes of the type M[NNOH]X2 (M = Ni, Co, Fe or Cu; X = Cl, Br or NCS). Spectral and x-ray diffraction data indicate that the complexes M[NNOH]X2 (M = Ni or Fe) are polymeric octahedral, as are the corresponding cobalt complexes having R = 2-thienyl. However, the cobalt complexes Co[NNOH]X2 (X = CI or Br; R = Ph or Me) and the copper complexes Cu[NNOH]CI2 (R = Ph, 2-thienyl or Me) are five-coordinate, while the thiocyanato complex Co[NNOH](NCS)2 (R = 2-thienyl) is tetrahedral.
