Complexes of cobalt(II) halides with 2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-4(3H)-pyrimidinone

The electronic structures of complexes of cobalt(II) halides with 2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-4(3H)-pyrimidinone have been studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The Co2p (3/2) lines of cobalt atoms, N1s lines of nitrogen atoms, and O1s lines of oxygen atoms in the X-ray photoelectron spectra have been analyzed. Based on these data for the free and coordinated ligands, the atoms of the ligand coordinated to the central metal atom are determined. The coordinated organic compound serves as an electron-donating ligand. The results obtained are consistent with IR and UV-Vis spectroscopic data.
