Coordination Studies of Some Salicylidene Heterocyclic Schiff Bases with La(III), Ce(III) and Sm(III).

Abstract

Coordination compounds formed by the interaction of some salicylidene heterocyclic Schiff bases with La(III), Ce(III) and Sm(III) are prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, electronic and I.R. spectra as well as conductometric methods. The data of analyses indicate that coordination takes place through the azomethine nitrogen atoms and OH groups where the ligands are coordinated as bidentate molecules.
