Formation of trimetallic compounds containing redox-active nitrosyl molybdenum tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)-borato groups. Schiff base complexes containing two molybdenum centres linked by meta hydroxy copper schiff base ligands
The reaction of [Mo(NO)Tp*Cl2] [Tp* = tris(3,5-dimethyl-pyrazolyl)borate] with copper(II) Schiff base complexes derived by condensation of two mole equivalents of 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde with a diamine [1,2-C6H4(NH2)2, NH2(CH2)nNH2, n = 2-5] affords trimetallic species containing three potential redox centres.The IR, UV-vis and EPR spectroscopic
