Abstract top

The title centrosymmetric Schiff base nickel(II) complex, [Ni(NCS)2(C16H22Br2N2O)2]·2CH3OH, consists of a mononuclear complex molecule and two solvent methanol molecules. The NiII atom lies on an inversion centre and is six-coordinated by the imine N and phenolate O atoms of the two Schiff base ligands and by the N atoms of two thiocyanate ligands, in an octahedral coordination geometry. The cyclohexyl rings adopt chair conformations.

Comment top

Recently, we have reported the structures of a few Schiff base copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes (Yuan & Zhang, 2005; Yuan et al., 2007). As an extension of our investigations in this area we report herein the title new mononuclear Schiff base nickel(II) complex.

The complex consists of a mononuclear complex molecule and two lattice methanol molecules (Fig. 1). The NiII atom, lying on the inversion centre, is six-coordinated by two imine N and two phenolic O atoms from two Schiff base ligands and by two N atoms from two thiocyanate ligands, in octahedral coordination. The bond lengths and angles to the Ni(II) atom are comparable to the values in other similar complexes (Diao, 2007; Li et al., 2007; Li & Wang, 2007). The cyclohexyl rings adopt chair conformations.

Experimental top

3,5-Dibromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (1.0 mmol, 280.0 mg), N-cyclohexylpropane-1,3-diamine (1.0 mmol, 156.2 mg), and nickel nitrate hexahydrate (0.5 mmol, 145.4 mg) were dissolved in a methanol solution (50 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min and filtered. After keeping the filtrate in air for 12 days, green block-shaped crystals were formed.

Refinement top

All H-atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with C—H = 0.93 Å, Uiso = 1.2Ueq (C) for aromatic 0.97 Å, Uiso = 1.2Ueq (C) for CH2, 0.96 Å, Uiso = 1.5Ueq (C) for CH3, 0.90 Å, Uiso = 1.2Ueq (N) for NH and 0.82 Å, Uiso = 1.5Ueq (O) for OH atoms.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
