Abstract

A new tetradentate bis benzimidaozlyl diamide ligand N, N′-Bis (benzimidazol-2-yl-methyl)- hexane-1, 6-dicarboxamide (GBSA) has been synthesized and utilized to prepare new Fe (III) complexes with exogenous anionic ligand X= Cl− and NO3−. Isomer shift values are in the range found for Iron in the+ 3 oxidation state while Quadrupole Splitting indicates large distortion from a six coordinate geometry, a finding supported by low temperature EPR ...
