Synthesis of a Ditopic Verdazyl Ligand and its Coordination to Nickel

by Erik Johnson

The goal of this research project was to prepare a self-assembled grid complex with a ditopic bis-verdazyl ligand and nickel(II) ions. A verdazyl is a relatively stable type of organic free radical in which the unpaired electron is delocalized over four nitrogen atoms. The ditopic verdazyl ligand was synthesized in six steps, and its coordination to metal ions, in particular Ni2+, was investigated. The hypothesized complex of the ligand with Ni2+...
