A new series of Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Fe(II) ternary complexes of glutamine, glutaric, and glutamic acid with imidazole derivatives have been synthesized. The nature of the bonding and the stereochemistry of the complexes have been deduced from elemental analyses, infrared and electronic spectra, conductivity measurements, and thermogravimetric analysis. The structure of [Co(glu)(IMI)2] and [Fe(glu)(IMI)2(H2O)2] complexes was validated using quantum ... Read more
