Abstract:
The Schiff base compounds N,N0-bis[(E)-quinoxalin-2-ylmethylidene]
propane-1,3-diamine, C21H18N6, (I), and N,N0-bis[(E)-
quinoxalin-2-ylmethylidene]butane-1,4-diamine, C22H20N6,
(II), crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system. These
molecules have crystallographically imposed symmetry.
Compound (I) is located on a crystallographic twofold axis
and (II) is located on an inversion centre. The molecular
conformations of these crystal structures are stabilized by
aromatic pye stacking interactions.

Abstract:
The mononuclear cobalt(II) complex [CoL2] H2O (where HL is quinoxaline-2-carboxalidine-
2-amino-5-methylphenol) has been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity
measurement, IR, UV-Vis spectroscopy, TG-DTA, and X-ray structure determination.
The crystallographic study shows that cobalt(II) is distorted octahedral with each tridentate
NNO Schiff base in a cis arrangement. The crystal exhibits a 2-D polymeric structure parallel to
[010] plane, formed by O-H...N and O-H... O intermolecular hydrogen bonds and pye
stacking interactions, as a racemic mixture of optical enantiomers. The ligand is a Schiff base
derived from quinoxaline-2-carboxaldehyde

Abstract:
Three copper(II) complexes of salicylaldehyde N(4)-phenyl thiosemicarbazone (H2L1) and two copper(II) complexes of N(4)-cyclohexyl thiosemicarbazone (H2L2) have been synthesized and characterized by different physicochemical techniques like magnetic studies and electronic, infrared and EPR spectral studies. The complexes View the MathML source and [(CuL2)2] (4) having dimeric structure. The thiosemicarbazones bind to the metal as dianionic ONS donor ligand in all the complexes, except in the complex [Cu(HL1)2] · H2O (2). In complex 2, the ligand moieties are coordinated as monoanionic (HL−) ones. Two of the complexes [CuL1dmbipy] · H2O (3) and [CuL2dmbipy] (5) have been found to possess the stoichiometry [CuLB], where B = 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine (dmbipy). The coordination geometry around copper(II) in 5 is trigonal bipyramidal distorted square based pyramidal (TBDSBP), as obtained by X-ray diffraction studies.

Abstract:
Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes of dimethylglyoxime and N,N-ethylenebis(7-methylsalicylideneamine) have been synthesized in situ
in Y zeolite by the reaction of ion-exchanged metal ions with the flexible ligand molecules that had diffused into the cavities. The hybrid
materials obtained have been characterized by elemental analysis, SEM, XRD, surface area, pore volume, magnetic moment, FTIR, UV-Vis
and EPR techniques. Analysis of data indicates the formation of complexes in the pores without affecting the zeolite framework structure, the
absence of any extraneous species and the geometry of encapsulated complexes. The catalytic activities for hydrogen peroxide decomposition
and oxidation of benzyl alcohol and ethylbenzene of zeolite complexes are reported. Zeolite Cu(II) complexes were found to be more active
than the corresponding Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes for oxidation reactions. The catalytic properties of the complexes are influenced by their
geometry and by the steric environment of the active sites. Zeolite complexes are stable enough to be reused and are suitable to be utilized as
partial oxidation catalysts.

Abstract:
In the molecule of the title compound, C20H16N6, the central
C—C bond lies on a crystallographic inversion centre. The
quinoxalidine ring is nearly planar, with a maximum deviation
of 0.021 (2) A ˚ from the mean plane. The crystal structure is
stabilized by intermolecular C—H....N interactions, leading to
the formation of a layer-like structure, which extends along the
a axis

Abstract:
A metalloporphyrin incorporated carbon paste sensor has been developed
for the determination of metronidazole benzoate (MTZB). Zn(II) complex
of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis (3-methoxy-4-hydroxy phenyl) porphyrin (TMHPP) was
used as the active material. The MTZB gave a well-defined reduction peak at
- 0.713V in 0.1 mol l -1 phosphate buffer solution of pH around 7. Compared
with bare carbon paste electrode (CPE), the TMHPP Zn(II) modified electrode
significantly enhanced the reduction peak current of MTZB as well as lowered
its reduction potential. Under optimum conditions the reduction peak current
was proportional to MTZB concentration over the range 1×10-3 mol1-1 to 1×10-5mol1-1. The detection limit was found to be 4.36×10-6mol1-1
. This
sensor has been successfully applied for the determination of MTZB in pharmaceutical
formulations and urine samples.

Abstract:
A novel N4O coordination mode offers carbohydrazone ligands as a building block for interesting frameworks through self-assembly. Bridging mode of oxygen of bis(2-benzoylpyridine ketone) carbohydrazone (H2L) with metal centers facilitates the formation of the macrocyclic molecular square [Zn(HL)]4(BF4)4 · 10H2O, offers wide range of applications for carbohydrazones.

Abstract:
Highly crystalline, ultra fine TiO (anatase) having high surface area has been prepared by thermal hydrolysis of titanyl sulphate 2
solution and characterized using B.E.T surface area measurements, XRD and chemical analysis. The dependence of surface area on
concentration of staffing solution, temperature of hydrolysis, duration of boiling and calcination temperature were also studied. As the
boiling temperature, duration of boiling and calcination temperature increased, the surface area of TiO formed decreased significantly. 2
On increasing calcination temperature, the crystallite size of TiO also increased and gradually the phase transformation to rutile took 2
place. The onset and completion temperatures of rutilation were 700 and 10008C, respectively
