Abstract:
Studies on transition metal complexes have achieved a great interest due to their versatile applications.The convenient route for synthesis,the nature of ligands and stability of metal complexes has significant contributions in their applications in medicine,biology,catalysis and photonics.The present work deals wth the synthesis and characterization of metal complexes of some tridentate acylhydrazones .Hydrazones are promising ligands in coordination chemistry with interesting binding modes and applications.The acylhydrazones chosen for the current study are capable of forming complexes in different forms through tautomerism.

Abstract:
In the present work,the chelating behaviour of thiosemicarbazones of a heterocyclic diketone, 2,6-diacetylpyridine is studied,with the aim of investigating the influence coordination exerts on their conformation and /or configuration, in connection with the nature of the metal and of the counter ion.The various possibilities like unsubstitution,ring incorporation at terminal nitrogen and condensation of one of the ketone group alone have been tried for ligand selection.Mainly first row transition metals like manganese,iron,nickel,copper,zinc and cadmium are studied.Metals like cobalt also were studied but could not result in fruitful isolation of the compound due to solubility problems.Different spectroscopic and characterization techniques have been utilized to reveal the nature of the metal and the ligands in coordinated metal complex.
