Structural studiesof Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Pd(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Hg(II) and Pb(II) metal ions with 2-[(E)-{[3-(methylsulfanyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl]imino}methyl] phenol

Coordination complexes of 2-[(E)-{[3-(meth ylsulfanyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazol-4- yl]imino}methyl]phenol(MSTIMP) with bivalentmetal ions of composition [M(MSTIMP)2] [M=Mn(II),Fe(II),Co(II),Ni(II),Cu(II),Pd(II),Zn(II),Cd(II), Hg(II) and Pb(II)] have been synthesized in solid state and characterizedthem with the help elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility value, electrical conductancemeasurement, electronic absorptionandinfrared spectral studies. On the basis ofthese studiesMn(II), Fe(II), Co(II) and Cu(II) complexes are suggested octahedral structurewhile those of Zn(II), Cd(II),Hg(II) and Pb(II) with tetrahedral structure. The Ni(II) and Pd(II) complexes are diamagnetic and have square planer structure.
