Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Fluorescence Property of a Cadmium Complex with Pyridine‐2‐carboxaldehyde‐2‐hydroxybenzoylhydrazone and 1,10‐Phenanthroline

Abstract

One novel Cd(II) complex with pabh and phen, [Cd(pabh)(phen)Cl], (pabh=Pyridine‐2‐carboxaldehyde‐2‐hydroxybenzoyl hydrazone, phen=1,10‐phenanthroline), has been synthesized. The crystal structure was determined by X‐ray single crystal diffraction. It belongs to a monoclinic system with space group p21n. Fluorescence properties of complex and ligands have also been researched.
