This document summarizes the synthesis and characterization of polymeric copper(II), zinc(II), and cadmium(II) complexes with two Schiff base ligands. The ligands were prepared by condensing 1,1'-4,6-dihydroxy-1,3-phenylene)diethanone with p-tolylamine or 2-aminopyrimidine. The complexes were synthesized by reacting the metal acetates with the ligands in solution. Characterization of the complexes included elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, 1H NMR, IR, and UV-vis spectroscopy. Thermal analysis was also performed on selected complexes. The results indicate the ligands bind as quadridentate ligands through nitrogen and oxygen donors and form
