“…The compounds are yellow ligands, green or dark green Pd (II) metal complexes and brown or dark brown Co(II) metal complexes solids at room temperature. Ligands (L 1 H), (L 2 H), (L 3 H), and (L 4 H) were prepared by condensation between different salicylaldehyde and N-(3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl)-ethylenediamine using the general method described for the preparation of salicylaldimine ligands [23,24]. Its characterization data (see Experimental section) agreed with the proposed formulae.…”
