In present investigation nanocrystalline mixed ligand complexes were synthesized using 8-hydroxyquinoline, salicylaldoxime with metals like Cu (II), Ni (II) and Co (II). The metal: ligand ratio was found to be 1:1:1. These complexes were characterized using electronic spectra, FTIR spectra, elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, thermogravimetric analysis, conductivity measurement, powder X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscopy with electron dispersive spectroscopic methods. The electronic spectra of complexes suggest that they have square planer geometries. In FTIR analysis characteristic bands of í (M-N) and í (M-O).The Co (II) and Cu (II) complexes are paramagnetic in nature and these had square planer geometry. While Ni (II) complexes are diamagnetic nature and having square planer geometry. The thermal analysis of complexes was studied in an attempt to assign intermediate compounds. Low molar conductance values indicate non -electrolytic nature of the complexes. The Powder X-ray diffraction study shows formation of nanocrystalline phase as well as the grain size of complexes is less than 10 nm. The EDS study is shows good agreement for formation of mixed ligand metal complexes . Complex: [C 16
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
