The coordination geometry of the metal centre can be controlled by the ligand design. Especially, the ortho-substituents of the phenolate moieties as well as the nature of side-arm donor influence the structure and reactivity of the complexes formed. Depending on the metal ion and the ligand environment, the complexes formed can be monomeric or dimeric ones. Several heterobimetallic complexes are also known. (c) 2011 Elsevier B.V.
