[The IR spectra of complexes of N-(phenyl, ferrocenyl)methyl-beta-hydroxyethylamine with Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II)].

The reaction of ferrocenylphenylcarbinol with the ethereal solution of boron trifluoride in dichloride methane resulted in the relevant ferrocenylphenylmethyl carbocation. Without separation from the reaction mixture, the ion reacted with ethanolamine to from N-(phenyl,ferrocenyl) methyl-beta-hydroxyethylamine(FcY). A series of coordinate complexes-FcY-Ni(II), FcY-Cu (II), FcY-Zn(II), FcY-Cd(II) and FcY-Hg(II) were obtained through coordination of this ligand with MCl2 (M = Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Hg). The complexes and ligand were taken for FTIR in the range of 4 000-400 cm(-1). Their major bonds were assigned and compared. The results showed that in all the complexes some bands (v(O-H), v(N-H) , delta(O-H), delta(N-H)) showed a certain shift to lower wave number, and bands(V(C-N), v(O-N)) exhibited a certain shift to higher wave number. The aminoalcohol groups and metal ions were bonding with coordinated bond.
