Synthesis of N'-[4'-Benzo(15-Crown-5)]-4-Tolylaminoglyoxime and N'-[4'-Benzo(15-Crown-5)]-4-Chlorophenylaminoglyoxime and Their Complexes with Copper (II), Nickel (II) and Cobalt (II)

N'-[4'-benzo(15-crown-5)]-4-tolylaminoglyoxime (H2L1),the sodium chloride salt of H2L1 (H2L1...NaCl),N'-[4'-benzo(15-crown-5)]-4-chlorophenylaminoglyoxime(H2L2) and the sodium chloride salt of H2L2 (H2L2...NaCl)have been prepared from p-chlorophenylchloroglyoxime,p-tolylchloroglyoxime, 4'-aminobenzo[15-crown-5] and sodiumbicarbonate or sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride. Nickel (II),cobalt (II) and copper (II) complexes of H2L and H2L...NaClhave a metal-ligand ratio of 1 : 2 and the ligand coordinatesthrough the two N atoms, as do most of the vic-dioximes. Their IR spectra and elemental analyses are given, together with1H NMR spectra of the ligands.
