COORDINATION COMPOUNDS OF Cu(II) AND Ni(II) WITH SCHIFF BASES DERIVED FROM FORMYLCARVONE AND o,p-AMINOBENZOIC ACID

Abstract

Copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes employing the Schiff bases derived from formylcarvone and ortho and para aminobenzoic acid (L) have been prepared. The complexes of general formula CuL2.2H2O and Nil2.2L have been characterized by elemental analysis, infrared, visible and EPR spectra, and thermodifferential analysis. The metallic ion has determined the type of the complex.
