Preferred Abstract (Original):

A series of novel Cd(II) complexes incorporating ligand, di(2-pyridinyl)methanone N-(2-

pyridinyl)hydrazone (DPMNPH), has been investigated. The ligand, DPMNPH, and its

corresponding complexes have been characterized with the help of number of techniques:

microanalysis, FT-IR, 1H-and 13C-NMR, UV/Vis spectroscopy, thermal studies and MSFAB

mass spectrometry. In addition, single crystal X-ray diffrction measurement studies

are also employed in one of the complexes showing a distorted trigonal bipyramidal

geometry. Furthermore, the existence of NH....Npy intramolecular hydrogen bonding

interactions in the ligand and its corresponding complexes have also been reported.
