The purpose of my thesis was to synthesize nickel coordination compounds with trifuoromethyl substituted pyrithiones. I synthesized the pyrithiones in two steps from 2-chloro pyridines. I used the prepared products as ligands for the formation of nickel coordination compounds. I characterized the resulting compounds with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), IR spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, CHN elemental analysis and high resolution mass spectroscopy (HRMS). I obtained single crystals of certain compounds, which were analysed with X-ray diffraction (XRD).
