Abstract

Azo compounds are known for their diverse applications in coordination chemistry, yet their potential with specific ligands remains underexplored. This study aimed to synthesize and characterize a new azo compound through a two-step reaction involving 4-nitroaniline and 2-hydroxynaphthaldehyde, followed by condensation with 4,4-diaminodiphenylmethane. The resulting ligand was then complexed with cobalt and nickel. The ligand and its metal complexes were characterized using elemental analysis, FT-IR, mass spectrometry, and ¹H NMR. The findings provide insights into the structural properties of the ligand and its complexes, contributing to the understanding of their potential in catalysis, materials science, or pharmaceutical applications.
