Abstract
The formation of metal complexes with acid hydrazides plays an important role in the growth of their biological activity. A simple synthetic strategy is described for the synthesis of novel 1,2,4-tri-azepine and 1,2,5-triazocine derivatives via electron donor–acceptor interaction. Thus when 2-aminobenzohydrazide reacted with tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) and 2-dicyanomethylene-indan-1,3-dione (CNIND) afforded 1,2,4-triazepine derivatives. While on reacting
