Box 98135-674, Zahedan, Iran. Twonew Cd(II) complexes of the type [Cd(opd)(dafone)]NO₃(1) and [cd(phen-dion)(dafone)]NO₃(2)that opd=ortho-phenylenediamine, dafone=4-5 diaza- diazafloren-9-on and phen-dion =1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione, have been synthesized.These compounds have been characterized using the IR, UV-Vis, ¹H-NMR spectroscopies and elemental analysis.Also electrochemical behavior of complex (1) and (2) were studied by Cyclic Voltammetric method. The FT-IR results showed that the ligands adduct to metal center as a bidentate ligand by nitrogen atoms. https://biomedpharmajournal.org/vol9no2/synthesis-and-characterization-of-cd-complexes-containing-phenanthroline-derivatives/ ¹H-NMR spectroscopies metal center electrochemical behavior adduct
