Metal(II) acetates of nickel, zinc and cadmium facilitate hydrolysis of 4-(4-oxopentan-2-ylideneamino)benzoic acid (iminocarb). In the case of nickel a dinuclear iminocarb complex is proposed as intermediate species to form nickel complex of 4-aminobenzoic acid (Haben). The nickel complex formed from hydrolysis has a composition [Ni(O2CCH3) 2(Haben)2(H2O)2]·2H 2O. In this complex, the nitrogen atoms of the 4-aminobenzoic acid ligands coordinate to nickel ion and the benzoic acid end of the ligands remain free. A five coordinate [Zn(aben)2(py)(H2O)] complex is obtained from a similar reaction of iminocarb with zinc(II) acetate followed by reaction with pyridine (py). On the other hand the reaction of iminocarb with cadmium(II) acetate forms a coordination polymer [{Cd(aben)2(H 2O)}·H2O]n.
