New copper complexes of amide ligands, obtained by condensation of maleic anhydride, succinic anhydride and phthalic anhydride with acetyl hydrazine, 2-amino benzonitrile or 2-amino benzimidazole, were synthesized and characterized. Analytical data and electrical conductivity measurements indicate the formation of 1:1 and 1:2 complexes. Magnetic moments and spectral properties support distorted octahedral and square planar structures for the complexes.
