The title homoleptic Schiff base complexes, [M(C14H9Cl2N2O)2], for M = CoII,(I), and CuII, (II), present distinct coordination geometries despite the Schiff base dianion coordinating via the phenolato-O and imine-N atoms in each case. For (I), the coordination geometry is based on a trigonal bipyra...
