Abstract

Abstract The compounds bis[N-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)salicylideneaminato]cobalt(II) and analogous species with substituents at the 5-position of the salicyl moiety have been synthesized. They prefer the tetra-coordinate tetrahedral geometry in non-donor solvents, while some of them are forced into planar structures in the solid state. In pyridine, exclusively predominant species are five-coordinate complexes with the base bound with the cobalt(II) ion. Monopyridine adducts, which consist of five-coordinate complexes, have been isolated as crystals.
