New polymeric complexes of Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and UO 2(II) with 5-(2 1-carboxyphenylazo)-8-hydroxyquinoline (LH 2) have been prepared and characterized on the basis of analytical, magnetic, 1 H NMR, EPR and electronic spectral studies. Tentative structures for the polymeric complexes are proposed. The important infrared (IR) bands and the main 1 H NMR signals are assigned and discussed relative to the molecular structure. EPR spectrum of copper(II) complex has been studied with a view to assigning their stereochemistries. Various EPR parameters have been calculated. Each metal has six-coordinates in an octahedral environment. The ligand acts as a dibasic (bis-bidentate chelating agent coordinating through CN, NN, COOH and OH groups by replacement of a proton from the two latter groups. Considerable interest has also been focused on the synthesis of the azo compounds and its polymeric metal complex due to its wide potential applications. The thermal decomposition behavior of the complexes is also discussed.
