Abstract:
Three solid complexes of Ni (II), Cu (II) and Zn (II) nitrates with norfloxacin, having the composition of [Ni (NFA)2 (NO3)] NO3.2H2O, [Ca (NFA)2] (NO3)2.H2O, [Zn (NFA)2 (NO3)] NO3.2H2O, have been synthesized in aqueous solvent. All the isolated complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra, thermogravimetric analysis and molar conductance in methanol. The results show that [Ni (Ni (NFA)2) (NO3)] NO3.2H2O, [Zn (NFA)2 (NO3)] NO3.2H2O are 1:1 tape electrolytes in methanol, their coordination numbers are all 6. The nitrates of inner boundary are all bidenlate ligands. The complex torming with copper nitrate and norfloxacin is non-electrolyte in methanol, the coordination number is 4. Norfloxacin molecules with inner salt types are all bidenlate ligands.

Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can be...
