Chemical and electrochemical synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of mono- and binuclear 3d-metal complexes of N-[2-[(hydroxyalkylimino)methyl]phenyl]-4-methylbenzenesulfonamides

The complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Fe(II) with N-[2-[(hydroxyalkylimino)methyl]phenyl]-4-methylbenzenesulfonamides were synthesized. The dimeric structure of copper complexes with (CH2)n-spacers (n = 2, 3) was determined by the magnetochemical method, X-ray absorption spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction.53
