title: A spectroscopic and magnetic study of complexes of bis(2-benzothiazolyl)methanate and bis(2-benzoxazolyl)methanate with Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II).
abstract: The co-ordination geometry of the complexes M(bbtm)2 and M(bbom)2 (M: Co, Ni, Cu, Zn; bbtm, bis(2-benzothiazolyl)methanate; bbom, bis(2-benzoxazolyl)methanate) are discussed on the basis of their IR, Raman, resonance Raman, electronic and ESR spectra. Compounds of Ni, Co, Zn with both ligands and Cu(bbom)2 resulted to have a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The distortion towards a square planar geometry is more marked for the M(bbtm)2 series than for the M(bbom)2 one. It has been impossible to suggest a co-ordination geometry for Cu(bbtm)2, that probably has a polymeric structure.
