The synthesis of two diamagnetic dinuclear complexes [Ni(II)2(L**)2] (1) and [Zn(II)2(L)Cl4] (2) and an octahedral, paramagnetic, mononuclear complex [Fe(II)(L)Cl2] (3) (S = 2) is reported; the tetradentate ligand N,N'-bis(6-methyl-2-pyridylmethylene)ethane-1,2-diamine, L, is shown to be redox noninnocent. It exists in its neutral closed-shell form L in 2 and 3 and in its dianionic diradical form, (L**)2-, in 1.
报告了两个反磁性双核配合物[Ni(II)2(L**)2]（1）和[Zn(II)2(L)Cl4]（2）以及一个八面体、顺磁性、单核配合物[Fe(II)(L)Cl2]（3）（S = 2）的合成；四齿配体 N,N'-双（6-甲基-2-吡啶亚甲基）乙二胺，L，被证明是非氧化还原无关的。它以中性闭壳形式 L 存在于 2 和 3 中，以其二阴离子双自由基形式（L**）2-存在于 1 中。
