Synthesis and Characterization of Cobalt(III) Zinc(II) and Copper(II) Complexes with N-Salicylaldehyde-D-Glucosamine and N,O-Vanillin-D-Glucosamine

Abstract

The Schiff base N-salicylaldehyde-D-glucosamine, H₂L¹, its complexes with Co(III), Cu(II) and Zn(II), as well as the Co(III), Cu(II), Zn(II) complexes of N-O-vanillin-D-glucosamine, H₂L², have been synthesized. These compounds have been characterized on the basis of their elemental analyses, conductivity measurements, infrared, UV-visible and ¹H NMR spectral data.
