This study examines the influence of ligand design on the structural, optical, and electrical properties of copper-based coordination complexes. Ligands HL and HL were synthesized via the reaction of 5-nitrosalicylaldehyde with 2-hydroxy- or 4-hydroxybenzhydrazide. HL was obtained from the reaction of carbohydrazide and salicylaldehyde, while HL was prepared by condensing 4-methoxysalicylaldehyde with thiocarbohydrazide.

Parent dioxidomolybdenum Schiff base complexes were prepared via the reaction of [MoO(acac)] with a hydrazone Schiff-base tetradentate ligand. A new hydrazone-Schiff base (HL) and its corresponding mononuclear and polynuclear dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complex were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic methods and elemental analyses, and their thermal behavior was investigated by thermogravimetry.
