Abstract

Asymmetric bidentate Schiff base ligand (HL) and its cobalt(III), nickel(II), and copper(II) complexes have been synthesized (where L = 2-[(4-methoxy-2-nitrophenyl)iminomethyl]phenol). The ligand and its metal complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses (CHN) and FTIR spectroscopy. Thermogravimetric analyses of the compounds reveal their thermal stabilities along with their thermal decomposition pattern. In addition, the complexes have been used for the preparation of corresponding metal oxide nanoparticles by controlled aerobic thermal decomposed at 500 °C. The FTIR pattern of the obtained solids receals the formation of the metal oxides nanoparticles.
