Abstract: Phenyl hydrazo-β-diketone ligands were prepared and their complexes with Pd(II) were studied. The β-diketone moieties included acetyl acetone (AA), benzoyl acetone (BA) and dibenzoyl methane (DBM), while the aniline part included 2- mezoxy-, 2-chloro-, 3-nitro-, 3-bromo- and 4-flouro- moieties. The stability constants and protonation constants of Pd(II) complexes and the ligand were studied in 75% (v/v) dioxanewater spectrophotometrically. Solid complexes of Pd(II) where established by elemental analysis, IR spectra, mass spectra and 1H-NMR methods. A linear relationship exists between the chemical shift of hydrazo proton and the protonation constants of the ligand, in addition to the linear relation obtained between the stability constants and the ligand basicties (∑pKH).
Keywords: Hydrazo-β-diketone ligand, potentiometric and spectrophotometric studies of Pd(II)-PHBDH complexes, preparation of solid complex.
