Synthesis Characterization and Spectral Studies of Bisdithiocarbamate of Urea and its Metal Complexes

Abstract

A novel disodium salt of Bisdithiocarbamates of urea (UBDT) and its metal complexes, Co(II)UBDT, Ni(II)UBDT, Cu(II)UBDT and Cd(II)UBDT were prepared and characterized by Elemental Analysis, Conductivity Measurements, Infrared Spectroscopy, Electronic Spectroscopy and NMR Spectroscopy. Water-soluble UBDT possessed good chelating ability for various metal ions. Its complexes, Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II) and Cd (II) are amorphous, intractable solid having polymeric structure. The ligand as well as the complex was found to possess high thermal stability.
