The researchers wanted to make a novel azo imidazole as a follow-up to
their previous work. We focused on the ligand 4-[(2-amino-4-phenylazo)-
methyl]-cyclohexane carboxylic acid as a derivative of trans-4-
(aminomethyl) cyclohexane carboxylic acid diazonium salt, synthesized a
series of its chelate complexes with metal ions, and characterized these
compounds using a variety techniques, including elemental analysis, FTIR, LC-Mass, NMR and UV-Vis spectral process as well TGA, conductivity
and magnetic quantifications. Analytical data showed that the Cr(III),
Mn(II) and Zn(II) complexes out to 1:1 metal-ligand ratio with octahedral
geometry except Mn complex has tetrahedral geometry.
