%X Reaction of the bis-&#946;-amino ketone 4,4,12,12-tetramethyl-5,8,11-triazapentadecane-2,14-dione diperchlorate with nickel(II) or copper(II) in the presence of hydrazine results in the formation of complexes of the tetradentate pentaaza macrocycle 3,5,5,13,13,15-hexamethyl-1,2,6,9,12-pentaazacyclopentadeca-2,15-diene hpd. Singlet ground state [Ni( hpd )] (ClO4)2, triplet ground state [Ni( hpd )(NCS)2], [Ni( hpd )A] ClO4 (A = acac -, 1/2(C2O42-), NO2-1,[Ni( hpd )(NO3)] NO3 and [Cu( hpd )](C1O4)2 were prepared. Infrared, electronic, 1H and 13C n.m.r. spectra, magnetic susceptibilities, and the kinetics of the slow acid promoted aquation reactions of the cations at 25ºC in HCl/NaCl solutions (I= 1 mol 1-1) are reported.
