“…8 In the last few years, chemical and physical properties of some charge transfer complexes formed by the reaction of π-electron acceptors with some het-36 M. S. Refat erocyclic amines have been the subject of many investigations, [9][10][11] some of these charge-transfer complexes show very interesting applications in the analysis of some drug in pure form or in pharmaceutical preparations 12,13 and some of the CT-complexes show very interesting physical properties such as electrical conductivity. [14][15][16] To continue these reports in this area, 7,8 present investigation deals with the formation of the new CT-complexes obtained in the reaction of different metal acetylacetonates [Cu(II), Ni(II), Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(III), Cr(III), Al(III) and Zr(IV)] with picric acid (PA). All reactions were carried out in chloroform as a solvent.…”
