When I reacted Bidentate NS Schiff Base with metal salt (M-Cl2) metal chlorides in +2 oxidation state in proportion of (2:1 Schiff base &metal salt) , i was get sticky material
Why ?
---~ conc of metal salt is higher then it affect the nature of product to become sticky?
Dear Nilesh Junghare "When I reacted Bidentate NS Schiff Base with metal salt (M-Cl2) metal chlorides in +2 oxidation state in proportion of (2:1 Schiff base &metal salt) , i was get sticky material": The formation of a sticky product simply means that your Schiff base complex is not pure yet and presumably contains some residual solvent or other impurities. Did you follow a literature procedure? In any case I would try a first purification step by precipitation. You could redissolve your sticky product in methanol and precipitate it with e.g. diethyl ether to obtain a solid. Good luck!
you can use di ethyl ether, pet. ether or aceton to redissolve the product then repercipitate it again and then dry it in a disicator
Dear Nilesh Junghare if your product is not very soluble in diethyl ether it sometimes helps to triturate the sticky product wth this solvent. When you stir the mixture with a glass rod, chances are that it solidifies eventually.
