Exploring a more flexible N2O2-donor ligand and its octahedral tri-nuclear Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes

Two new tri-nuclear Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes, [{Co(L)(μ-OAc)(EtOH)}2Co]·2EtOH·2CH2Cl2 (1) and [{Ni(L)(μ-PhCOO)(MeOH)}2Ni]·2CH3OH·4H2O (2), were synthesized by complexing H2L (4-methylcoumarin-2,...
