In this study, 2,4,6-triamino-s-triazine (melamine) is the starting material. The condensation reaction of melamine and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde resulted in the formation of the monopodal Schiff base. An oxygen-bridged monopodal complex of [(Fe(III)Salophen)Cl] ligand complex with monopodal Schiff base ligand was then obtained. Tripodal Schiff base ligand was obtained by condensing 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde with a monopodal complex and this ligand in some transition metal complexes were synthesized. As a result, the ligand and complexes of this ligand were isolated, as well as elemental analyses, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, TGA and magnetic susceptibility measurements of the obtained compounds were taken to elucidate their structures.
