The isatin-β-thiosemicarbazone (ITC) complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Hg(II) and Pd(II) were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, as well as molar conductivity, magnetic susceptibility, FTIR, UV-Vis and 1H NMR spectroscopic methods. The complexes were also studied for its thermal stability. They all behaviour as anhydrous complexes and its thermolysis passes through the stages of deamination (517–547 K) and complete thermal decomposition (619–735 K).
