Mixed ligand chelates of Fe (III) and Co (III) diphenates with 5-methyl-1,10-phenanthroline and 4-Methyl-2,2’-Dipyridyl have been isolated. Different physico-chemical studies reveals their octahedral geometry. I.R. studies indicate dibasic nature of diphenic acid, while 4-methyl-2,2’ dipyridyl and k5- methyl -1,10-phenanthroline works as a neutral ligand, coordinated through tertiary nitrogen atom.
