Abstract

Zinc (II) complex of general formula [ZnL(phen)BF4]BF4 was prepared by using Schiff base, 4-bromo- (2-carboxyphenyl)-pyridine-2-yl ethylene amine and secondary ligand 1,10 - phenanthroline and zinc tetra fluoro borate salt with 1:1:1 molar ratio. Distorted octahedron structures were elucidated on the basis of elemental analyses, IR, electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, molar conductivity. We report synthesis and spectral characterization of Zinc (II) complex of mixed ligands, Schiff base, 4-bromo-(2- carboxyphenyl)-pyridine-2-yl ethylene amine and 1,10-phenanthroline.

Keywords: synthesis, spectral characterization, Schiff base, 4- bromo-(2-carboxyphenyl)-pyridine-2-yl ethylene amine, 1,10- phenanthroline, zinc (II) complex.
