SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF COPPER(II) COMPLEX WITH 2,6-DIACETYLPYRIDINE-BIS(PHENYLHYDRAZONE)

The syntheses, physicochemical and structural properties of the novel Cu(II) complex with 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(phenylhydrazone) (L), of the formula [CuL2]Br2 are presented. In the reaction of warm MeOH solutions of the ligand, 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(phenylhydrazone) and CuBr2 in molar ratio 2:1 resulted in formation of black single crystals of the bis(ligand) complex. This is the first Cu(II) complex with this ligand that is characterized by SC-XRD. Two ligand molecules are coordinated in the usual tridentate mode, via nitrogen atoms of the pyridine ring, and two azomethine nitrogen atoms, forming distorted octahedral environments of the metal ion.

SIMULATION OF CHEMICAL ACCIDENTS WITH ACETYLENE IN „MESSER TEHNOGAS“ KRALJEVO PLANT BY „ALOHA“ SOFTWARE PROGRAM

Chemical plants are generally associated with potentially high risk of chemical accidents. During chemical accidents hazardous substances jeopardize human lives, destroy material assests and degrade natural environment. The release of flammable and explosive gases or liquids especially poses a significant threat to the environment. This paper introduces the simulation of a chemical accident caused by an uncontrolled acetylene cylinder release in the warehouse of Messer Tehnogas Kraljevo chemical plant. The simulation was performed by ALOHA program package which defines a possible accident development and determines threat and safety zones. The assessment of potential scenarios is based on physico-chemical properties of the substance causing the accident. This paper discusses accident situations occurring under the most unfavorable atmospheric conditions.

SYNTHESIS AND STRUCTURE OF COBALT(II) COMPLEX WITH 2,6-DIACETYLPYRIDINE-BIS(PHENYLHYDRAZONE)

The molecular and crystal structure of a newly synthesized Co(II) complex with 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(phenylhydrazone) (L), of the formula [CoL2]I2 are described. The reaction of warm EtOH solutions of the ligand, 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(phenylhydrazone) and CoI2 in molar ratio 1:1 resulted in formation of black single crystals of the title complex. This is the first and so far, the only metal complex with this ligand that is characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. Co(II) is situated in a distorted mer-octahedral surrounding of two tridentate N3 coordinated ligand molecules. Complex crystallizes in monoclinic crystal system in C2/c space group. Besides X-ray analysis, conductometric, spectroscopic and magnetic properties of the complex are investigated.
