A series of nickel(II) and copper(II) salicylaldiminato complexes containing side arms with either potentially coordinating (OH) or non-coordinating (Cl) functional groups have been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography. The Cu(II) complexes are square planar, but the Ni(II) complexes prefer octahedral coordination. Linear absorption spectra depend on the metal and on its coordination geometry, with the octahedral Ni(II) complexes being the most weakly absorbing at 532 nm and the square planar Cu(II) complexes being the most strongly absorbing at 532 nm. The third-order nonlinear optical properties of the complexes have been characterized using degenerate four-wave mixing (DFWM) and Z-scan. Two different Z-scan experimental configurations were used, one of which employs a Gaussian beam in a tightly focused geometry while the other employs a top-hat beam and a more relaxed focus. The observed third-order optical nonlinearity is primarily due to transient thermal (photo-acoustic) effects associated with linear absorption in the samples. The dependence of the third-order nonlinear optical properties on the linear absorption means that the nonlinear optical properties vary substantially between the complexes even though they all contain the same chromophore. The hyperpolarizability of one of the complexes, γ = 1.3 × 10-30 esu, rivals the nonlinearities measured at 532 nm in expanded porphyrin and phthalocyanine complexes.

Spectroscopic properties and magnetic behaviours of the synthesised cobalt(III) and copper(II) complexes of the schiff bases N-(2-hydroxyethyl-X- salicylaldimines) (where X=H or 5Br) and the molecular structure of bis- (N2- hydroxyethylsalicylaldiminato) copper(II) determined by three dimensional single crystal X-ray analysis are reported.
