Abstract
Abstract Isonicotinic acid (HINA) forms only 1:1 complexes with the 3 cuprous halides, while ethyl isonicotinate (EtIN) forms complexes of the general formula EtIN n ·Cu X , where n = 1, 1·5, 2, 3 and 4 and X is Cl, Br, I, CN, SCN and ClO 4 . These complexes have been prepared by reduction of Cu(II) salts by ascorbic acid in presence of the ligand. The complexes are characterized by their analytical data, diamagnetism and conductivity measurements. Their reflectance spectra showed intense absorption in the visible region which is undoubtedly due to M → L charge transfer. Their IR spectra are discussed.
