Complexation of metal alkoxides with vic- dioxime and pyridyl monoxime ligands, characterisation of the complex structure

Metal alkoxides are considerably resistanceless against hydrolyzes and they are modified by various organic ligands to prevent rapid settlings. Hydrolysis reactions of the metal alkoxides modified by chelate composing ligands are chemically containable.In this study, oxime ligands having strong chelate functionality and metal alkoxides were comlexed and the structure of the complexes were clarified. First vic- dioxime ligands were obtained from the reaction of antikloroglioxime with different amine groups. Complexing reactions of these obtained vic- dioxime ligands and some commercially available pyridyl monoxime ligands with titanium tetra n-butoxide (Ti(OBun)4) and zirconium tetra n-butoxide (Zr(OBun)4) were performed and the structure of the consisted complexes were clarified with elementary analysis, FT-IR and 1H-NMR.KEYWORDS: Metal alkoxide, pyridyl monoxime, vic-dioxime
