Polymeric complexesSynthesis, Characterization and Analytical Applications

As the application of polymeric complexes is enormous, there exists a continuing interest in the synthesis and characterization of these complexes. The synthetic and characterization parts are very important in an academic point of view. Further in an application point of view also polymeric ligands/complexes are gaining attention.The thesis is divided in to six chapters, in which the first chapter gives an introduction along with a brief review on polymeric ligands/ complexes. The second chapter explains the different procedure adopted for the whole work along with the details of the reagents/ instruments used. The third chapter gives a report of the detailed study regarding the synthesis and characterization of eighteen complexes. While the fourth chapter is a report of the ion removal studies using three polymeric ligands, the fifth chapter explains the development of a polymeric complex as ion selective electrode material for the fabrication of a CC ion selective electrode. The sixth chapter presents the summary and tables, figures and references are given separately at the end.
