Abstract

A Schiff base has been prepared by condensation of acetylacetone and 2-aminopyridine. Metal complex of the Schiff base was prepared by the reaction of the Schiff base and cobalt(II) chloride in methanol. The complex was isolated, washed and dried. The Schiff base and the complex were yellow and purple colors respectively. They were characterized by solubility test, melting point and decomposition temperature, FT-IR., and molar conductivity analysis. Solubility test on the Schiff base and complex showed that they all soluble in DMF and DMSO but insoluble in CCl4 and ether. Also FT-IR. analysis showed a band at 1674cm-1 assigned to azomethine of the Schiff base which shifted to 1644cm-1 in the complex. The complex is high spin complex and electrolytic in nature.
