Abstract

The Schiff base octaazamacrocyclic ligands derived from primary diamines and 3,6-dimethyl/diphenyl-4,5-diazaocta-3,5-diene-2,7-dione, and their binuclear complexes [M2LCl4]Cl2 [M = Cr(III), Fe(III), Co(III), or Ru(III)] and [Mn2L(AcO)4](AcO)2 were synthesized by template condensation reactions. Attempts to synthesize the corresponding metal-free macrocyclic ligands did not prove successful. The overall geometry and stereochemistry of these complexes were elucidated by elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibilities, electronic spectra, infrared spectra, molar conductance measurements, 1H NMR, and thermogravimetric analysis. All the trivalent metal ion complexes appear to be 1:2 electrolytes. An octahedral geometry is proposed for all the complexes.
