The easy bideprotonation of both -OH and ‑HNSO2- groups, as well as a suitable N,N,O binding domain that can simultaneously bind two metal ions through µ2-Nsulfonamido bridges have been considered during the design step of the Schiff base ligand. All the compounds synthetised were characterised by a combination of 1H NMR spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and elemental analysis. We have used 2‑D NOESY spectra of some of the compounds for structure elucidation in solutioneng© 2016 by MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.
