Abstract:
Azulene, a non-alternant aromatic hydrocarbon with distinctive electronic and structural characteristics, represents an attractive candidate for ligand design, particularly for complexation of silver ions (Ag⁺). This study focuses on the preparation, characterization, and computational modeling of silver complexes formed by azulene-based Schiff bases. Utilizing Density Functional Theory (DFT), we aim to gain a deeper understanding of their properties. Computational methods provide insights into the electronic structure and stability of these complexes, paving the way for innovative material design and applications in sustainable chemistry. Moreover, the unique electronic configuration of azulene contributes to the enhanced interaction with silver ions, which could lead to the development of advanced catalytic systems and electronic devices. The synthesis of these complexes involves the careful selection of azulene derivatives, optimizing conditions to promote effective Schiff base formation. Characterization techniques such as X-ray crystallography, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and NMR analysis are employed to confirm the structure and purity of the complexes. This comprehensive approach not only elucidates the fundamental aspects of silver-azulene interactions but also explores their potential practical applications in areas such as gas storage.
