O (SrCrBpy) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) were synthesized. Structural analysis revealed double oxalate-bridged zigzag Sr-Cr chains while magnetic susceptibility studies showed paramagnetic behaviour of the complexes. HF-ESR spectroscopy data were analysed with a relevant spin-Hamiltonian, yielding the

HF-ESR studies have enabled us to establish rational magneto-structural correlations and revealed significant differences between very similar crystal structures. Additionally, the ability of SrCrPhen and SrCrBpy to be single-source precursors for the formation of Sr-Cr oxides was investigated.
