Whether the reaction is complete and the purity of the compounds were checked with TLC. The structure of the newly synthezed compounds was investigated by using, FT-IR, 1HNMR, LC–MS/MS and UV–Visible spectrophotometric methods, CH3OH was used in the LC-MS/MS experiments, and the molecular masses of the compounds were seen as M and M+1 protonated in the spectrum. In the UV-Vis spectra of these compounds, the solvent effect by using different solvents and also the acid-base effect by adding HCl or KOH to the medium were investigated. The tautomeric equilibrium forms (enol-imine O-H….N, keto-amine O….H-N forms) of the compounds were investigated according to the electronic spectrum recorded in chloroform, dimethylformamide (DMF), acetic acid, and methanol solvents. The results of the UV-visible and 1H-NMR spectra indicated that the compounds in chloroform, dimethylformamide (DMF), acetic acid and methanol were found in the hydrazo tautomer (keto-amine O….H-N forms) of the proposed tautomeric forms.}, number={3}, publisher={Gazi Üniversitesi}
