Investigation on Transition Metal Complexes with Sulphur and Nitrogen Containing Ligand Derived from Diethylamine

Abstract

A new series of diethylaminedithiocarbamates of transition metals has been prepared. These metal-complexes were characterized through analytical data, molar conductance and FT-IR spectral data. The most of metal-complexes were coloured. The analytical data proved the compositions ML2 for dithiocarbamates of Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺ and M'L3 for those of Cr³⁺ and Fe³⁺. All the metal-complexes were found to be non-ionic in nature. The FT-IR spectral data revealed the symmetrical coordination by the ligand in all the complexes.
