Abstract
|
Nano-structures of a new discrete coordination
compound of divalent cobalt with the pyrazol (pzH) containing
the terminal isothiocyanate anions, [Co(pzH)2
(NCS)2] (1), with discrete molecular architecture in solid
state was synthesized by a sonochemical method. The new
nanostructure was characterized by scanning electron
microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray
photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, IR,
and elemental analysis. The supramolecular features in
these complexes are guided and controlled by weak
directional intermolecular interactions. The discrete molecules
interact with each other through labile interactions
creating a 3D supramolecular framework. The CoO
nanoparticles were obtained by thermolysis of 1 at 180 C
with oleic acid as a surfactant
