Ten new complexes of bromides of yttrium and lanthanides with 4-N-(2'-hydroxybenzylidene)aminoantipyrine (HBAAP) having the formula [Ln(HBAAP)2Br2]Br, where Ln = Y, La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho and Er have been prepared and characterized. Molar conductance studies indicate 1:1 electrolytic behaviour for these complexes. Their infrared spectra show that HBAAP acts as a neutral tridentate ligand coordinatin throuhg the carbonyl oxzgen, azomethine nitrogen and phenolic oxygen. Electronic spectra showthe week covalent character in the metal-ligand bond. Thermogravimetric studies indicate that these complexes are stable up to about 170.degree .C and undergo decomposition in two stages forming the respective metal bromides as the final products.
