The reaction of the synthesized 2‐(4,5‐diphenyl‐1H‐imidazol‐2‐yl) phenol, (HL) ligand with FeIII, CoII, NiII, CuII, and ZnII ions at room temperature resulted in the formation of the five complexes; [Fe(L)2(H2O)(Cl)]·2H2O and [_M_(L)2)]·_n_H2O [_M_ = Co, Zn (_n_ = 2), Ni, Cu (_n_ = 1)]. The ligand and its complexes were characterized based on elemental analyses, spectral, magnetic and molar conductance measurements. ...
