%X The chlorpromazine (CP) complexes of the transition metal ions, Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II), have been synthesized. The complexes have been characterized by their elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic susceptibility, UV-Visible, IR and 1H-NMR data. The molecular formulations of the new mononuclear complexes have been found to be [ZnBr(C17H19ClN2S.HCl)2]Br, [CdBr(C17H19ClN2S.HCl)2]Br.H2O, [Cd(C17H19ClN2S.HCl)2]I2 and[HgBr((C17H19ClN2S.HBr)2]Br.2H2O, where the ligand chlorpromazine or CP = C17H19ClN2S. The complexes, [ZnBr(C17H19ClN2S.HCl)2]Br, [CdBr(C17H19ClN2S.HCl)2]Br.H2O, and [HgBr((C17H19ClN2S.HBr)2]Br.2H2O, behave in DMF solutions as 1:1 electrolytes while the other complex, [Cd(C17H19ClN2S.HCl)2]I2, shows an ionic ratio of 1:2 in solution. Molecular structures have been proposed showing a square pyramidal environment around each metal center with an sp3d hybridization for the five-coordinate complexes, [ZnBr(C17H19ClN2S.HCl)2]Br, [CdBr(C17H19ClN2S.HCl)2]Br.H2O, and[HgBr((C17H19ClN2S.HBr)2]Br.2H2O. In the four-coordinate [Cd(C17H19ClN2S.HCl)2]I2 complex, the Cd(II) center with an sp3 hybridization has a tetrahedral environment around it.
