Hydrogen bonding in coordinated thiosemicarbazones: ammine[2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde 4-methylthiosemicarbazonato]nickel(II)

J. V. Martínez, S. Hernández-Ortega and V. Bautista Jimenez

Abstract: In the title compound, [Ni(C₁₃H₁₁N₃OS)(NH₃)], the Ni atom is four-coordinate, with a distorted square-planar geometry. The 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde 4-methylthiosemicarbazonate ligand coordinates in a tridentate manner through the S, imine-N and O atoms, the ammonia molecule completing the coordination. The molecules are connected by N-HN hydrogen bonds, through c-glide-plane translations, forming extended chains.
