Synthesis and characterization of new azo-azomethine complex based on 2-bromoaniline with Pb metal and investigation of its conversion to nano-materials

An azo compound was prepared by reaction of 2-bromoaniline with 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde. A novel azo-azomethine ligand was synthesized via condensation of prepared azo compound with 2-amino4-chlorophenol. The reaction of this ligand with lead (II) acetate produced a new lead complex. To obtain nano-sized particles of PbO, the complex was calcined at 600 ºC for 4 hours and characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, X-ray and SEM.
