Manganese (II), nickel (II) and zinc (II) complexes have been prepared using various benzamideand biphenyl-derived ligands; their structures have been investigated using infrared spectroscopy and it is apparent that, depending on the ligand, the metal centres adopt octahedral, tetrahedral and distorted tetrahedral coordination geometries. The catecholase activity of the manganese (II) complexes has also been evaluated
