“A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF COPPER(II) AND NICKEL(II) COMPLEXES”

Abstract

Many chemical and biological processes depend on coordination complexes made of transition and main group elements. Coordinate covalent bonds hold ligands to a central metal atom or ion in these complexes. The ligands can form chelates with tetrahedral, square planar, or octahedral geometries, depending on how many donor atoms they include. Also, some compounds display optical or cis-trans isomerism. Coordination compounds are very helpful in fields like oxygen transport, water purification and medicine because of these special qualities. Historically, kinetic parameters, such activation energy, have proven difficult to determine from thermograms because they involve regulating parameters, which can main to mistakes. Because of this, the results are questionable and better techniques are needed for calculations that are more responsible. In particular, metal complexes combining Schiff bases and bidentate ligands are examined in this work along with their synthesis, characterisation, thermal stability and biological activity. The metal content of copper and nickel complexes was ascertained by means of exact breakdown and snow processes, supported by classy analytical techniques. By improving our comprehension of coordination complexes' temperature behavior and stability, these discoveries hope to advance their usefulness in a variety of industries.
