Ga. Bain et al., SYNTHETIC AND SPECTROSCOPIC INVESTIGATIONS OF N(4)-SUBSTITUTED ISATINTHIOSEMICARBAZONES AND THEIR COPPER(II) COMPLEXES, Polyhedron, 16(5), 1997, pp. 855-862
A series of N(4)-substituted thiosemicarbazones of isatin were synthes
ized and their copper(II) complexes prepared from copper(II) chloride.
X-ray crystal structures of two of the thiosemicarbazones, isatin 3-(
hexamethylenimylthiosemicarbazone) and isatin 3-(N(4)-ethylthiosemicar
bazone), have been solved and are compared with a previously published
structure of isatin 3-(N(4)-p-tolythiosemicarbazone). The coordinatio
n chemistry of the copper(II) complexes of these and other isatin thio
semicarbazones is reported and discussed. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier
