The preparations and X-ray crystal structures of the first transition metal complexes of 1,3-bis(8-quinolyloxy)propane (2) are described. The ligand acts as a trans-chelating N,N′-bidentate ligand in the three-coordinate silver(I) nitrate complex (3) and four-coordinate copper(II) chloride complex (4), but as an N,O,O′,N′-tetradentate ligand in the octahedral nickel(II) chloride complex (5).
