Özet

Five different Nickel (II) complexes were prepared using a ONNO type Schiff base bis-N;N’(salicylidene)-1,3-propanediamine (LH2) and an ONO type Schiff base N(2-hydroxy)salicylaldimine (SAPH2) in the presence of NH3 or amine and NiO nanoparticles were obtained with thermal decomposition of this complexes in air. The prepared complexes and Schiff bases have been characterized by element analysis, IR spectroscopy, Thermogravimetry (TG), 1HNMR and 13CNMR spectroscopy, Mass Spectrometry (MS), Atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The surface area of the obtained nanoparticle NiO material was measured by the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method. The thermal decomposition products NiO nanoparticles were investigated with XRD, and SEM technics. SEM investigations showed that due to the very little solubility of the prepared two complexes and consequently they were precipitated in the form of nanoparticles. In addition, it observed that this very insoluble complexes are converted to NiO nanoparticles a result of thermal decomposition.
