Abstract :
The Schiff base complexes were prepared and characterised by UV, IR and NMR (1H and 13C) spectroscopy, elemental analysis and X-ray powder diffractometry. Free ligands and some new complexes were submitted to thermal analysis (TG and DSC) under dynamic air atmosphere. The differences in the decomposition profiles were related to the structure of isomers and decomposition intermediates were characterised according to their X-ray diffraction pattern.
