Acid–Base Behavior of Substituted Hydrazone Complexes Controlled by the Coordination Geometry
 M. Chang, H. Horiki, K. Nakajima, A. Kobayashi, H.-C. Chang, and M. Kato
[Full Text PDF(J-STAGE)]

The PNN-type hydrazone complexes exhibit distinctive color changes by deprotonation/protonation. The acidity constants (pKa) are largely influenced by the ligand deformation controlled by the coordination geometry, the pseudo-tetrahedron for CuI complexes and the square-planar for NiII and PtII complexes.
