NOTES 635

Reaction between titanium( IV) chloride and the so­dium salt of o-vanillinoxime in a 1:1 molar ratio (7)

Compound (7) was prepared by the reaction of o­vanillinoxime (0.67 g, 4.0 mmol) with TiC14 (0.76 g, 4.0 mmol) in analogy to the procedure as mentioned earlier for compound 1. All other titanium(IV) de­rivatives of o-vanillinoxime were synthesized analo­gously (Table 1).

Results and discussion

Titanium(IV) derivatives of N-(salicylidene) anthranilic acid have been prepared by the reaction of titanium(IV) chloride with the sodium salt of N­(salicylidene)anthranilic acid (prepared in situ) in different stoichiometric ratios in a refluxing dry benzene-isopropanol mixture. These reactions are found to be quite facile and the sodium chloride formed during the course of the reaction is filtered off.

All the resulting derivatives are coloured solids and soluble in common organic and coordinating solvents. These complexes are further purified by crystal­lization from dichloromethane-n-hexane mixure and their purity was further checked by TLC on silica gel . Each of the complexes moves as a single spot indicating the presence of only one component and hence their purity. Molecular weight determination in CHCb solution shows monomeric nature of these complexes. The conductivity measurements in nitrobenzene exhibit electrolytic nature of I: I, I :2 and I :3 reaction products, whereas no electrical conductivity is shown by I :4 reaction product. Elemental analyses are in the good agreement with the calculated values (Table I) .

The v(C=O) mode of the free -C02H group (H2L1)

at I675 em·' is not observed in complexes (1-6) and only Vas and Vs modes of deprotonated -C02 group appears at - I575 and I380 em·', respectively, the D.v(V35-V5) value (195 cm- 1

) being consistent with uni­dentate carboxylate coordination20

·21

• The v(C=N) fre­quency of the free ligand at I630 em·' are shifted to lower frequencies in all the complexes, suggesting coordination through azomethine nitrogen22

. In the complexes 5 and 6, the phenolic -OH disappears completely, indicating coordination via oxygen of the -OH group, while in complexes 1-4, appearing at - 3460 em·' in the free ligand, remains unaffected . These facts support coordination by the ligand as bidentate in the complexes 1-4 and tridentate in the complexes 5 and 6 using the -CH=N, -C02 and phenoxide groups23

.

The IR spectra of the complexes 7-12 have been compared with the corresponding ligand (H2L

2) and

from the shifts in frequency and/or from the intensity lowering, the coordination sites have been ascer­tained. The spectrum of vanillinoxime exhibits bands at I615 v (C=N) and 3300 em· ' v (0-H, N-OH and

phenolic-OH). The presence of -OH vibrations in the complexes 7-10 shows that -OH groups are intact and uncoordinated, whereas in complexes 11 and 12, it disappears completely suggesting coordination via phenolic oxygen to titanium metal. There is no sig­nificant change in the (C=N) stretching frequency suggesting non-participation of azomethine group in coordination. The band appearing at 1030 em·' in the spectrum of the ligand has been assigned to -OCH3

group vibration. These bands do not show any signifi­cant change and remain almost unchanged in the spectra of the complexes. A new band present in the region 544-576 em·' may be attributed to Ti-0 stretching vibration24 in all the complexes.

The PMR spectrum of the ligand H2L1 is charac­

terized by signals at 8 11.86, 10.02, 8.65 and 7.92-6.48 ppm, attributable to -COOH proton, phenolic -OH, azomethine proton and phenyl protons, respec­tively. The PMR spectra of the complexes 1 to 4 are devoid of signal at 11.86, suggesting deprotonation of -COOH group and subsequent involvement in coordi­nation, whereas in complexes 5 and 6, both -COOH and -OH protons disappear, showing bonding from carboxylic as well as phenolic oxygen to titanium atom. The azomethine protons suffer deshielding in all the complexes, exhibiting coordination of azome­thine nitrogen to titanium.

A comparison of the 1H NMR spectral data of the ligand o-vanillinoxime and titanium(IV) complexes provides interesting results. The =N-OH signal is ab­sent in the spectra of the complexes 7-10, suggesting deprotonation and its subsequent involvement in co­ordination forming Ti-0 bond24

. The -OH signal ob­served at 8 13.47 in free ligand also disappeared in compounds 11 and 12, indicating deprotonation and taking part in bonding to titanium atom. The aromatic protons appear over the region 8 8.22-6.48 ppm in all the complexes. The pertinent spectral data of the compounds are listed below.
