Two energy minima have been determined, by DFT calculations, for HL 1 and for its ortho-vanillin analogue HL 2 , corresponding either to the conformer observed in the solid state or to the chelating tridentate form. TD-DFT calculations have been performed on HL 1 and HL 2 in order to assign their experimental UV-visible absorption bands. Reaction of HL 1 and HL 2 with copper (II) hexafluoroacetylacetonate (hfac), zinc (II) hexafluoroacetylacetonate or zinc (II) acetate provided the neutral complexes [Cu(L 1)(hfac)] (1), [Zn(L 1)2] (2), [Cu(L 2)2] (3) and [Zn(L 2)2] (4) which were structurally characterized, with a focus on the coordination sphere of the metal centre and on the intermolecular interactions. The UV-visible absorption properties of the Zn(II) complexes 2 and 4 have been experimentally and theoretically investigated and compared to those of the ligands. Finally, the cryomagnetic study of 1 and 3 in the temperature range 2.0-295.0 K reveals a Curie-Weiss law behaviour with very weak intermolecular antiferromagnetic interactions in the low temperature region. %G English %2 https://univ-angers.hal.science/hal-03855098/document %2 https://univ-angers.hal.science/hal-03855098/file/Polyhedron_revised.pdf %L hal-03855098 %U https://univ-angers.hal.science/hal-03855098 %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-ANGERS %~ INC-CNRS %~ MOLTECH-ANJOU %~ TEST2-HALCNRS
