abstract
Reactions of 2-(arylazo)-1-N-salicylidene phenylamine, H2L, 1, [H represents the dissociable protons upon complexation], with K2PtCl4 afforded orthometallated complexes of composition [Pt(L)], 2 where the Pt(II) is coordinated by the tetradentate (C,N,N,O) ligand, L2-. Reaction of the precursor complex [Pt(L)] with I-2 afforded octahedral complexes of composition [PtI2(L)], 3. All the complexes were characterized unequivocally. X-ray crystal structure of [Pt(L-1)] and [Pt I-2(L-1)] have been determined. (C) 2014 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
