Synthesis and Characterization of Transition Metal (Cu, Co, Fe) Complexes of 6-Methyl-5-arylhydrazono-2-thio-4-oxo-pyrimidine Ligand

The article deals with a study to synthesize transition metal complexes of copper, cobalt, and iron with the ligand 6-methyl-5-arylhydrazono-2-thio-4-oxo-pyrimidine (MATOPyr). The synthesized ligand and all metal complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, XRD, SEM, FTIR, 1HNMR, UV-VIS, magnetic spectral studies, and Mossbauer measurements. The morphology of the ligand along with the complexes of all three metals was also deduced.
