Mixed ligand complexes of Rubidium and Cesium metal salts of different organic acids like 1-nitroso-2-naphthol (1N2N) , 8-hydroxy quinoline (8HQ), o-nitrophenol (ONP) and 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) with isonitroso-p-methyl acetophenone having the general formula ML.HL, where M=Rd or Cs, L= deprotonated 1N2N, 8HQ, ONP and DNP and HL = isonitroso-p-methyl acetophenone have been synthesised and characterised on the basis of elemental analysis, conductivity measurement and infrared spectral studies. Their IR spectral data indicate the presence of hydrogen bonding in them, which may be of the dominant factors of their stability.
