Abstract
Complexes of ruthenium(III), platinum(IV), rhodium(III), palladium(II) and platinum(II) with 3-(o-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2, 4-triasoline-5-thione (pttH) and 3-(o-hydroxyphenyl)-4-(o-hydroxy-benzylidine)-1,2, 4-triasoline-5-thione (HO-bttH) have been Synthesised aad oharaoterised on the basis of elemental analyses and infrared and electronic spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The pslladium(II) and platinum(II) Complexee are square planar, Whereas ruthenium(III), platinum(IV) and rhodium (III) Complexes possees pseudooctahedral stereo chemistry. Various ligand field and nephelauxetic parameters have been evaluated wherever possible.
