Abstract
1,4-Dioxo-3, 4, 4e, 5, 10, 10a-hexahydro-1H-5,10-benzenobenzo [g] phthalazin-2-yl-thioamide [6a]; 1,4-dioxo-3, 4, 4e, 5, 10, 10a-hexahydro-1H-5, 10-benzenobenzo [g] phthalazin-2-yl-N-pyridylthioamide [6b] and 1,4-dioxo-3, 4, 4e, 5, 10, 10a-hexahydro-1H-5, 10-benzenobenzo[g]phthalazin-2-yl-N-ethylthioamide [6c] and their [Cu(6a-H)(OAc)], [Zn(6a-H)(OAc)], [Cu(6b-H)(H2O)(2)(OAc)]center dot 3H(2)O and [Zn(6b-H)(OAc)], [Cu-2(6c-H)](OAc)(3)]center dot 2H(2)O and [Zn(6c-H)(OAc)] complexes have been synthesized via a reaction between phthalazinedione 6a-c derivatives and the acetate salt of Cu(II) or Zn(II). These compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, spectra (UV-Vis, IR, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, ESR), conductance, thermal analysis and magnetic moments.
