The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, LC-mass spectrometry, magnetic studies, FTIR, and H-1-NMR spectroscopy. The spectroscopic studies show that H2L and H2L' ligands are coordinated to the central metal as tetradentate ligands coordinating via their imine N and O donor atoms in (1-6).eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessN, N'-Bis(2-Hydroxynaphtalin-1-Carbaldehydene)-1,2-Bis(P-Aminophenoxy)EthaneN, N'-Bis(2-Hydroxynaphtalin-1-Carbaldehydene)-1,4-Bis(P-Aminophenoxy)ButaneMetal CarbonylsSchiff BaseArticle387615619WOS:0002589793000102-s2.0-5134914808010.1080/15533170802293303N/AQ4
