Abstract

Solid-state structures for a series of Co(L)(2)X(2) complexes are assigned on the basis of magnetic moments, FTIR spectra, electronic spectra properties (L = 2-amino-4-methylpyridine, 2-amino-3- methylpyridine, or 2-amino-5-chloropyridine; X chloride or acetate). All complexes were prepared in one-step syntheses. The crystal structure of 2-amino-4-methylpyridine with cobalt(II) chloride Co(L)(2)(Cl)(2) was solved at room temperature. This compound consists of mononuclear units consisting of two ligands linked to cobalt via the pyridine. The complex crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Pcan with z = 8. UV-Vis spectra show five absorption bands, attributed to d-d transitions of cobalt, ligand -> metal charge transfer, and pi -> pi* or n -> pi* transitions of ligand. FTIR spectra show CoL(2)X(2) vibrations at 550-300 cm(-1). The compounds show room temperature magnetic moments of 4.58-5.29 B.M., indicating high-spin cobalt(II).
