Summary: | This thesis describes the synthesis of several new N-(2'-dimethylaminoethyi)arylidene-imines (L) of the formula 2-HOC6H3(X)C(R)=N(CH2)nNR,2 and their reduced products (LH) with the formula of 2-HOC6H3(X)CH(R)NH(CH2)nNR,2 (where X = H, 3-OCH3, 5-Br and 5-N02; R =H and CH3; n = 2 and 3; R' = CH3 and C2H5). The coordination behaviour towards diphenyltin dichloride and triphenyltin chloride of these newly synthesized Schiff bases, together with their saturated analogues, was also investigated. For the sake of convenience, the work embodied in this thesis is presented in the following chapters.
