Mixed Ligand Uranyl(VI) Complexes of 2,6-Dipicolinic Acid

Abstract
The mixed ligand uranyl(VI) complexes of pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (H2PDC) of the type [UO2(PDC) (N-N)], where N-N stands for a bidentate ligand, such as ethylenediamine, 2,2′-bipyridyl, 1,10-phenanthroline, o- and m-phenylenediamines, have been described. The complexes have been characterised on the basis of elemental analysis, electrical conductance and spectral (infrared and electronic) data.
