| Abstract: | The assembly of Cd(L1)]— {L1]3— = NCH2CH2N=C(CH3)COO—]3} into the tetranuclear cluster {Cd(L1)]Na(H2O)2}2 in the presence of Na+ is mediated by Na+‐carboxylate interactions; in contrast In3+ and Fe3+ induce the partial hydrolysis of L1]3— to afford the complexes In(L2)Cl] and {Fe(L2)]2O} {L2]2— = NCH2CH2NH2]CH2CH2N=C(CH3)COO—]2} which aggregate via intermolecular H‐bonding. |
