2,6-Diacetylpyridine bis(benzyl and acetone)hydrazone and some 3d-meta
l complexes have been prepared. These complexes are five-coordinated t
rigonal bipyramidal. The ligand coordinates through the pyridine-N and
amide-N. Formation of two chelate rings by one molecule of ligand, Is
a feature that undoubtedly enhances the stability of the complexes.
