Abstract
Ferrocenylaldehyde nicotinoyl and isonicotinoyl hydrazones and their coordination compounds with cobalt (II), nickel (II). zinc(II), cadmium(II), copper(II) and manganese (II) have been synthesised. The composition, properties and bonding mode of the ligands with metal ions have been studied by means of elemental analyses, IR, 1H NMR, UV-Vis spetroscopy, thermal analysis and molar conductivity.
