Synthesis, Characterization, FTIR and UV-Vis of a Novel Compound (E)-3-(5-bromo-3-fluoro-2-hydroxybenzilide amino)Benzaldehyde

One of the most studied compound families in the field of crystallography is the Schiff-based compounds. The basis of this research article is a newly synthesized Schiff-base compound. This research aims to investigate the synthesized (E)-3-(5-bromo-3-fluoro-2-hydroxybenzilide amino)benzaldehyde phenol compound using experimental methods. FTIR, UV-Vis and X-ray diffraction methods were used to elucidate the structural properties of the compound synthesized at the end of chemical processes. The structure solution was carried out from the data obtained as a result of X-ray analysis. According to these results, a molecule was formed in the asymmetric cell. The resulting structure has shaped in enol-imine form. The number of molecules in the unit cell was also determined as 4 (Z = 4). According to the results obtained as a result of UV-Vis spectroscopy, the structure revealed that the enol-imine form was dominant. The reasons for this situation were explained.
