Abstract

This study reports the syntheses and the characterization of 12 ferric complexes of pyridoxal thiosemicarbazone. The richness of the coordination chemistry of this ligand is highlighted by the modulation of its charge from neutral H2L to anionic L2−, thus leading to a wide family of ferric compounds with charge varying from +3 to −1. The structures of complexes [Fe(HL)2]ClO4 · 2H2O and [Fe(HL)L] · 4.5H2O were solved and discussed with a particular attention brought to the intermolecular interactions occurring between the complexes. The investigation of magnetic properties of these compounds revealed that two of them are in the HS state at any temperature, whereas the others are in the LS state. These results are discussed in relation to the modulation of the electronic properties of the ligand.

Graphical abstractThe richness of the coordination chemistry of the ligand pyridoxal thiosemicarbazone is highlighted by the modulation of its charge from neutral H2L to anionic L2− , thus leading to a wide family of ferric compounds with charge varying from +3 to −1. For the compounds obtained in this study, a particular attention is focused on their electronic properties and on the intermolecular interactions occurring between complexes in the solid state.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
