“…All reagent-grade solvents were dried, distilled, and stored under a nitrogen atmosphere. The starting compounds were prepared based on the literature: bis(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)methane [ 38 ], bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methane [ 39 ], 3,5-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-ylmethyl)toluene [ 40 ], 3,5-bis(benzotriazol-1-ylmethyl)toluene [ 41 ] and 1,3-bis(indazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene (L). The synthetic protocols for the previously reported complexes dichloro[bis(3,5-dimethylpirazol-NN)]cobalt(II) ( 1 ), dichloro[bis(3,5-dimethylpirazol-NN)]-copper(II) ( 2 ), dichloro[bis(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)methane-NN]cobalt(II) ( 3 ), dichloro[bis(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)methane-NN]copper(II) ( 4 ), dichloro[bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methane-NN]-cobalt(II) ( 9 ) and dichloro[bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl) methane-NN]copper(II) ( 10 ) are provided in the Supplementary Information [ 8 ].…”
