Manganese schiff's base complexes—II

Abstract

A series of new five-coordinate complexes of the type [Mn(SB)Cl] where SB is the tetradentate Schiff's base of the 4- X derivative of salicylaldehydeethylenediimine, ( X = H, CH 3 , sec-C 4 H 9 , OCH 3 , Br and 3,4- X derivatives of hydroxyacetephenoneethylenediimine, ( X = H, CH 3 , have been synthesized and characterized. I.R. and electronic absorption spectra have been measured and tentative band assignments made. The room temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements on the complexes in dimethylsulfoxide solution and in the solid have been carried out.
