All the calculations were carried out using the Gaussian 09 program package, and the data obtained from the frontier molecular orbitals of the optimized ligand and its complexes showed that the complexes were less stable and more reactive than the ligand. The infrared vibrational frequencies of the Schiff base functional group had lower stretching vibrations in the complexes than the ligand, with the appearance of new vibrational frequencies therein not observed in the spectrum of the ligand. These observations can be used to confirm bond formation between a Schiff base and a transition metal in chemical synthesis.https://jaoc.samipubco.com/article_149823_b40d788ee24448851dae62fab855af70.pdfSami Publishing CompanyJournal of Applied Organometallic Chemistry2783-36232220220501ZnCl2-SiO2 Supported Synthesis and Characterization of Novel 2-Phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one Derivative667315082010.22034/jaoc.2022.339148.1053ENHarsh GaikwadModen College of Arts Science and Commerce Shivaji Nagar Pune, IndiaMilind VithalraoGaikwadDepartment of Chemistry, D.Y.

It is also used in the preparation of drugs such as nifedipine, nicardipine and Lacidipine. The common method of synthesis of polyhydroquinolines is one-step condensation reaction of Dimedone, aldehydes with ethyl acetate and ammonia in the presence of various catalysts such as MCM-41, molecular iodine, bread yeast, etc. Most of these methods have disadvantages such as low gain, high reaction temperature, long time. In this research, cerium oxide / zinc oxide nanoparticles have been reported as a very effective and economical catalyst for the four-component and one-pot reactions of polyhydroquinolines using the reaction of Dimedone, Aryl halide, ethyl acetoacetate and ammonium acetate.https://jaoc.samipubco.com/article_153723_302c1259abbfdefc5a4b4a9ef93df393.pdfSami Publishing CompanyJournal of Applied Organometallic Chemistry2783-36232220220501Synthesis, Physicochemical and Biological Studies of Transition Metal Complexes of DHA Schiff Bases of Aromatic Amine818815442910.22034/jaoc.2022.349187.1055ENDhananjay GangadharPalkeDepartment of Chemistry, Rajarshi Shahu Mahavidyalaya, (Autonomous)Latur -413512, India0000-0003-4994-9818Journal Article20220626The Transition metal complexes of Cu (II), Ni (II), Fe (III) Co (II) Mn (II) and Cd(II) with DHA Schiff base ligand derived from 2-aminopyridine were synthesized, characterized by elemental analysis, (FTIR, UV-VIS, 1HNMR and XRD ) spectroscopic techniques, Thermal and Magnetic study.
