ABSTRACT The Schiff base ligand diethylene triamine Penta acetic acid was synthesized from choro acetic acid and diethylene triamine tetra acetic acid. Fe (III) complexes of the Schiff base were prepared from Fe(III) salts in an ethanolic medium. The ligand and Fe (III) complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance measurements, magnetic susceptibility, IR and electronic absorption spectra. The Fe(III) complexes were electrolytic nature due to higher values of their molar conductivities. The Schiff base behaves as trianionic tridentate ligand and coordinating through amino nitrogen and oxygen atom of -COOH group. The analytical and spectral data show the formula of metal complexes have been found to be [Fe(L)(B)3] where L = ligand, B = water, ammonia, quinoline, phenyl isocyanide and ꭤ-picoline. Thus, on the basis of elemental analysis and spectral data all the Fe (III) complexes have been found to be octahedral in geometry.
