Investigation of Coordination Interaction of Trigonal Schiff Base Compound with Zn(II) Ions in Organized Molecular Films

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to investigate the supramolecular assembly and coordination interaction of special amphiphile, a trigonal Schiff base compound with long alkyl chains was designed and synthesized, and its supramolecular assembly and interaction properties were investigated by spectral and morphological measurements. It was found that the Schiff base compound can be spread on water surface to form stable monolayer. When on the Zn(II) ions subphase, an in situ coordination can occur for all ligands. As a result, a 1:2 complex was formed for the trigonal chain Schiff base with Zn(II) ions through the coordination interaction. Due to the directionality and strong matching of coordination, two Zn(II) ions can be encapsulated into intramolecular space of the trigonal Schiff base compound.
