M. Yu and G.-M. Yang

Abstract: The title compound, (9,20-dichloro-12,17-diphenyl-2,4,13,16-tetraazatricyclo[16.4.0.0^6,11]docosa-6,8,10,12,16,18,20,22-octaene-3,4-dionato)nickel(II) methanol hemisolvate, [Ni(C₃₀H₂₀Cl₂N₄O₂)]·0.5CH₃OH, has a square-planar coordination geometry around the Ni^II ion. The two phenyl groups of the macrocyclic ligand are nearly perpendicular to the coordination plane. The solvent methanol molecule is disordered over two sites, near to a twofold axis.
