Diaquabis(N-ethyl-N',N'-dimethylethylenediamine-[kappa]2N,N')nickel(II) dichloride

Abstract top

In the title compound, [Ni(C6H16N2)2(H2O)2]Cl2, the NiII cation (site symmetry \overline{1}) is coordinated by two N,N-bidentate ligands and two water molecules, resulting in a slightly distorted trans-NiO2N4 octahedron. The complex cations and chloride anions are linked by N-H...Cl and O-H...Cl hydrogen bonds into a chain.

Comment top

A number of nickel dichloride complexes of substituted ethylenediamines have been characterized by X-ray diffraction; these have the nickel atom chelated by two ligands. The octahedral geometry is completed by two water molecules. Such aquanickel salts are exemplified by the N,N-dimethylethylenediamine and N,N-diethylethylenediamine complexes (Ide & Norman, 2007; Ihara et al., 1991). The title compound, (I), shows a similar metal geometry (Fig. 1, Table 1). and the bite angle of the ligand is also similar to those found in such compounds. The components interact by way of N—H···Cl and O—H···Cl hydrogen bonds (Table 2).

Experimental top

To an ethanol solution (5 ml) of nickel chloride hexahydrate (0.119 g, 0.5 mmol) was added an ethanol solution (5 ml) of N,N-dimethyl-N'-ethyl-ethylenediamine (1.6 ml, 1 mmol). The solution was filtered. Ether was diffused into the filtrate; light blue crystals of (I) were isolated after a week.

Refinement top

The C-bound hydrogen atoms were placed at calculated positions in the riding model approximation [C—H = 0.93–0.98 Å, U(H) = 1.2–1.5 Ueq(C)]. The water and amino H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map, and were refined with a distance restraint of O–H = N–H = 0.85±0.01 Å and free refinement of their Uiso values.
