The ligand includes two propionitrile pendant arms on the amine nitrogen atoms. The homobimetallic complex [ZnL2Zn(OAc)]PF6 was synthesized by one step procedure. Heterobimetallic complexes [ZnL2M(OAc)]PF6  that M= Cu(II) and Ni(II), were prepared by a trans-metallation reaction. The prepared complexes were characterized on the basis of molar conductance measurement, elemental analysis, IR, NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopy techniques. Characterization results showed that the nitrogen atoms of propionitrile pendant arms are not involved in the coordination to the metal center and also the two metal ions are bridged by two phenolic oxygen atoms and an acetate group. %U https://ijcce.ac.ir/article_11326_8536cb2aa1f6f6e1f2378e07324a950a.pdf
