Exchange reactions of some nickel schiff's base complexes

Abstract

(l) Metal exchange has been observed for some aliphatic Schiff base complexes of nickel. (2) A previously unreported method of radioassay for Ni63 has been developed, using a scintillation counting technique. (3) Stepwise formation of five and six co-ordinate species has been observed for two of the complex compounds with ammonia. Where k2, the second formation constant, has been determined, it is greater than k1.
