A tridentate Schiff base having HNNS donor sequence was prepared by condensing S-benzyldithiocarbazate (NH2NHCSSCH2Ph) with pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde. Complexes of this ligand, pyCHNNHCSSCH2Ph(HNNS), with Cu(II), Cd(II) and Zn(II) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses and various...
