Introduction The nickel(II), palladium(ll), and platinum(ll) complexes of 2-pyridinaldoxime (HPOX) (structure I) are the subject of this section of the dissertation. 2-Pyridinaldoxime was first prepared by Lenart1 in 1914 (as a derivative of the aldehyde), but no attempt was made to prepare its complexes. 2-Pyridinaldoxime shows structural features of both dimethylglyoxime (HDMGr) h 3c OH- \ / J c c HO—N// \N-OH ■N 'N II III (structure II) and 2,2'-bipyridlne (bipy) (structure III), in that it has an oxime function to a second donor group (as in HDMG), and in that the second donor group is a 2-substituted pyridine ring, such as exists in 2 ,2 *- bipyridine. 2-Pyridinaldoxime also shows some similarity to 2-methyl-2-amino-3-butanone oxime (AOH) (structure IV) C H, CHcj n r- -Clio // r H 0— N NH2 IV in that both compounds are amine oximes, the amine in one being aromatic, that in the other, aliphatic. This amine oxime can be considered as a composite of HDMG (structure II) and ethylenediamine (en) (structure V). H o C CH0 *7 h 2 n n h 2 V Two ligands similar to 2-pyridinaldoxime, and some of their complexes, have been reported. Tschugaeff2 first prepared palladium(II) and platinum(II) compounds of phenyl-fit-pyridyl ketoxime (structure VI); Sen, recently, reported the use of this ligand for the spectro- 3 4 photometric determination of palladium(ll). Emmert and Diehl-* reported the reaction of methyl-^C-pyridyl ketoxime (structure VII) with nickel(ll). Both of these ligands have been studied only in a cursory manner. The investigation of the complexes of HPOX reported in this ,c 6h5 / 6 5 / k3 V / 0H S * / 0H VI VII dissertation represents the first detailed study of a ligand of this class. The only experimental work which has been reported on complexes of HPOX Involves the equilibria of the iron(ll) derivatives in aqueous solution^ 1. Complexes of qt-Dioximes.— Since Tschugaeff dis covered the complexes of o^-dioxinies, ^ the interaction of oximes with metal Ions has been of considerable interest to chemists. Tschugaeff also discovered the bright red compound [Ni(DMG)2 ] and published the first paper O utilizing it for the quantitative determination of nickel. Since Tschugaeff*s time the nickel, palladium, and plati num complexes of many oximes have been studied. Organic chemists have utilized color reactions with nickel to confirm the nature of oxime derivatives (Table l). Analytical chemists have used oximes as reagents for the determination of nickel, palladium, and platinum, and inorganic chemists have studied
