Abstract: In continuation to our project for exploring the mechanism of selective absorption of alkali metals by plants as well as the possible role of alkali metals cations in plant metabolism Chemistry of alkali metals would facilitate fuller understanding of the mechanism. The study of the Coordinator Chemistry of these metals has been undertaken. Our aim has been to synthesize new alkali metals complexes and to identify the various structural features in the ligands, which enhance their selectivity for complex formation with alkali metals icons

Keywords: O-hydroxyacetophenone phenylhydrazone, -hydroxyacetophenone - 2, 4 - dinitrophenyl hydrazone salicylaldehyde, anthranilic acid, Picolinic acid and Quinaldinic acid
