Abstract: Copper(II) benzoate complexes of composition Cu(C₆H₅COO)₂L (L = pyridine-N-oxide, quinoline-N-oxide, or some their methyl derivatives) have even at room temperature markedly lower magnetic moments than are the spin values corresponding to Cu²⁺ ions. Their magnetic behaviour studied ir the temperature range 93 — 303 К is typical for antiferromagnetism, with the Néel temperature Tm = 268 ± 12 К . From equilibrium constants of the singlet-triplet interaction the values of enthalpy (ΔH°)  and entropy (ΔS°)   were estimated. Magnetic properties of the studied complexes indicate that they belong to the copper(II) carboxylate complexes with a binuclear bridged structure. Copper(II) acetate monohydrate is a typical example of this type.
