Description
Summary:N-acylhydrazones 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-N0 -(2-hydroxybenzylidene)acetohydrazide, N0 -(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)acetohydrazide, 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-N0 -(2,4-dihydroxybenzylidene)-acetohydrazide, and N0 -(2,4-dihydroxybenzylidene)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)acetohydrazide were successfully synthesized by a multistep procedure. The obtained organic molecules were characterized by spectroscopic techniques (FT-IR, 1D and 2D NMR, UV-Vis) and mass spectrometry. The structure of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-N0 -(2-hydroxybenzylidene)acetohydrazide was also confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Ab initio computational simulations of the ligand spectra were in good agreement with experimental data and validated the hypothesis about the existence of a conformational mixture of each ligand in solution. Finally, the complexation potential of the synthesized ligands to Cu2+ was assessed by continuous variation experiments and FT-IR spectroscopy.
