In the current article, we report on the synthesis of cobalt(II) complexes with Clomipramie (Cp) ligand. The yield of the product obtained is 73-80%. The complex is characterized by infrared and electronic spectroscopic methods. Elemental analysis of the complexes was measured by analytical techniques on Vario ELIII CHN and S elemental analyzer. Melting point of the complexes were measured using Thomas Hoover apparatus at the heating rate of 1°C/min. The molar conductivity of the metal complexes was measured in DMF of 1x10-3 M concentration using Digisum electrons DI-9091/9009 direct reading digital conductivity meter and the values are lying in the range 25-39 ohm-1cm2 mol-1, which reveals the non-electrolytic nature of the complexes. Magnetic susceptibility measurements were done using Gouy balance. The observed magnetic moments at room temperature for cobalt(II) complexes are in the range 4.65 - 5.02 BM. Results reveal that the synthesized complexes are non-electronic in nature having high spin octahedral geometry.
