Synthesis and Characterization of Group-6 Metal Carbonyl Complexes of Aroyl Hydrazone Derivatives by Mohd Saleem, Mohita Sharma, Simpy Mahajan, H. N. Sheikh, B. L. Kalsotra

“…The IR bands suggest that in all the complexes the ligands behave as neutral bidentate chelating type coordinating metal through carbonyl oxygen and azomethine nitrogen. The CO force constants and CO-CO interaction constants for these derivatives have been calculated using Cotton-Kraihanzel secular equations, which indicate poor π-bonding ability of the coordinated ligands.…”
