Abstract

4-Cyanopyridine N-oxide has been incorporated as a ligand in nine new complexes spanning the six metal ions VO2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Cd2+. Its strength as a ligand, which is greatly weakened by the strong electron withdrawing capacity of the para cyano group, appears to fall between F and Cl on the stronger side and Br and ClO4 on the weaker side, at least towards VO2+. The new complexes have been characterized by their i.r. and visible-u.v. spectra, by conductance, and by magnetic susceptibility. The stoichiometries of the VO2+ complexes appear to be controlled by the anions present, and the Cu2+ complex is most likely a dimer.
