Two copper(II) ternary complex systems containing 5-chlorosalicylic acid (5-ClsalH) and different copper(II) salts with varying 3-pyridylmethanol (ron = ronicol) concentration, system I [CuSO4 (aq) +2(5-ClsalH(solv)) + xron(l)] and system II [Cu(ac)(2)(aq) + 2(5-ClsalH(solv)) + xron(l)], where x = 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8, were prepared and studied by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy in frozen water-methanol solutions to observe the effects of different copper(II) salts and varying neutral ligand concentration on the formation of resulting complexes in solution. The trend in g-values (g (||) > g(1) > 2.0023) indicates that the unpaired electron on the copper ion is localized in the d(x2-y2) orbital. The detailed analysis of the second-derivative Cu(II) EPR spectra has shown well-resolved N-14 superhyperfine splitting in the perpendicular part of the axially symmetric spectra. The resolution of nitrogen superhyperfine multiplet patterns increased with increase in the ronicol concentration (ligand-to-metal ratio x). The number of superhyperfine lines was found to be constant (nonet) when x > 4 for system I and x >= 4 for system II. This fact indicates that for these x-values four equivalent nitrogen atoms could be coordinated to the central copper atom in the equatorial plane of both systems.
