Synthesis and characterization of zn(ll),cd(Il) and Hg(II) complexes with thioether ligands and their adducts with 1,10 phenanthroline

Abstract

New complexes of general formula [M(LXSBu'')2],[M(L)(SFur)z] and adducts [M(L)(SBu")2(phen)]. [M(L)(SFur)z(phen)l,where L:C is-bis- I .2-(phenylthio)ethylene. SBu'': 1 -butanethiol. SFur:2-furanmethanthiol.phen:1,10 phenanthroline, M:Zn(ll).cd(ll) and FIg(ll) have been prepared in basic medium. The complexes and adducts were ihaiacterized by atomic absorption, conductivity measurements,spectral (lR and electronic) and molecular weight measurements studies' ietrahedral environment around the metal ions in the complexes andoctahedral geometry in the adducts were suggested according to the above measurements.
