Tripodal ligand was synthesized by the reaction of s-triazine and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde. Then a Schiff base involving 8-hydroxyquinoline was synthesized by the reaction of 5-aminomethyl-8hydroxyquinoline (QN) and 2,4,6-tris(p-formylphenoxy)-1,3,5-triazine (TRIPOD) in methanol/chloroform media. The obtained Schiff base (QN-TRIPOD) was then reacted with four trinuclear Fe(III) and Cr(III) complexes including tetradentate Schiff bases N, N'-bis(salicylidene) ethylenediamine (salenH(2))/bis (salicylidene)-o-phenylenediamine (SalophenH(2)). The synthesized ligand and complexes were characterized by means of elemental analysis carrying out H-1 NMR, FTIR spectroscopy, thermal analyses, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Finally, metal ratios of the prepared complexes were determined by using atomic adsorption spectrometry.en10.1002/jhet.2642info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessArticle541692698Q3WOS:000394058900088Q3
