The Synthesis of Four New bis(Amino‐2‐naphthylglyoximes) and Their Polymeric Complexes

Abstract

Four new bis(Amino‐2‐naphthylglyoxime) compounds, 1,4‐phenylenebis(Amino‐2‐naphthylglyoxime) L¹H₂, 1,5‐naphthylenebis(amino‐2‐naphthylglyoxime) L²H₂, dimethylene‐4,4′‐bis(Amino‐2‐naphthylglyoxime) L³H₂, and diethylene‐4,4‐bis(Amino‐2‐naphthylglyoxime) L⁴H₂, have been synthesized from anti‐2‐naphthylglyoxime and the corresponding aromatic diamines. Their polymeric complexes with Ni(II), Co(II) and Cu(II) have been prepared. The Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes of these ligands have been found to be square‐planar while the Co(II) complexes are octahedral with water molecules as axial ligands. ¹H NMR, IR, magnetic susceptibility and elemental analytical data of the complexes and ligands are discussed.
