The zinc(II) complex with tridentate thiohydrazone ligand have been prepared by metal template reaction. The metal template reaction was used to prepare the zinc (II) complex with tridentate thiohydrazone ligand. The reaction of diacetylmonoxime and, morpholine N-thiohydrazidewith Zn(OAc)2
2H2O under reflux yielded the formation of the [Zn(Hdmmthiol )2]
2H2O complex. The complex was characterized by a combination of protocols including elemental analysis, UV+vis, FT-IR, TG and PXRD. The temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity and the optical property of the [Zn(Hdmmthiol )2]
2H2O complex is called H2dammthiol was studied. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) method was used to investigate the crystal structure of the sample. The zinc complex was shown to be a member of the triclinic system. The zinc complex was determined to have n-type conductivity as demonstrated in the hot probe measurements. The complex was determined to display direct optical transition with band gaps of 2.52eV as determined by the optical absorption analysis.
