Tripodal Schiff Base Compounds Containing Triazole and Mn3+ and Fe3+ Complexes: Synthesis, Characterization, and Investigation of Their Spectral Properties

Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to synthesize and elucidate the structure of tripodal Schiff bases, which are used in the fields of materials science, chemistry, and pharmacology, and especially for the synthesis of chemical sensor materials due to their very good tendency to form complexes with metals. For the synthesis of new Schiff base tripodal compounds and their complexation with metals; Tripodal compound was synthesized as a result of the reaction of 2-hydroxy-4-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy) benzaldehyde and N1, N1-bis(2-aminoethyl) ethane-1,2-diamine. The obtained compounds were complexed with Fe3+ and Mn3+ metals. The structures of synthesized tripodal ligands and metal complexes were tried to be elucidated using IR, UV-vis, Photoluminescence, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR spectroscopic methods.
