In the centrosymmetric title compound, [Ni(C6H4NO2)2(C22H34N6)], the NiII ion is bonded to the four secondary N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand in a square-planar fashion and two carboxylate O atoms of the isonicotinate ions in axial positions, resulting in a tetragonally distorted octahedron.

N and N-H
O hydrogen-bonding interactions give rise to a one-dimensional supramolecular structure in the solid state.
The starting complex, [Ni(C22H34N6)Cl2], used in this work was prepared by a literature procedure (Jung et al., 1989). To a DMF/H2O (v/v; 1:1, 20 ml) solution of [Ni(C22H34N6)Cl2] (0.20 g, 0.40 mmol) was added dropwise an MeCN solution (10 ml) containing isonicotinic acid (0.10 g, 0.80 mmol) and excess triethylamine (0.08 g, 0.80 mmol) at room temperature. The color of the solution turned from yellow to pale pink. The mixture solution was stirred for 1 h during which time a pink precipitate of formed which was collected by filtration, washed with MeCN, and dried in air. Single crystals of the title compound suitable for X-ray crystallography were obtained by layering of the MeCN solution of isonicotinate on the DMF/H2O solution of [Ni(C22H34N6)Cl2] for several days. Yield 0.21 g (77%).
All H atoms in the title compound were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H distances of 0.95 (ring H atoms) or 0.99 (open chain H atoms) Å and N—H distance of 0.93 Å, and with Uiso(H) values of 1.2 times the equivalent anisotropic displacement parameters of the parent C and N atoms.

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 > 2σ(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. |

The coordination chemistry of tetraaza macrocyclic ligands has been extensively studied in the context of metalloenzymes and the construction of extended supramolecular networks (Tsuge et al., 2004; Larionova et al., 2003). In particular, NiII macrocyclic complexes with vacant axial positions are good candidates for assembling novel multi-dimensional materials in which they can possess interesting properties (Lee & Suh, 2004). Here, we report the synthesis and structure of the title compound.
As shown in Fig. 1, the NiII ion is coordinated by the four secondary amine N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand in a square-planar fashion and two oxygen atoms from isonicotinate ions at the axial positions, resulting in a tetragonally distorted octahedron. The average Ni—N and Ni—O bond distances are 2.062 (1) and 2.159 (1) Å, respectively. The axial Ni—O bond distance is longer than the equatorial Fe—N bond lengths, which can be attributed to the Jahn-Teller distortion of the NiII ion and/or the ring contraction of the macrocyclic ligand. Two CO bond distances of the carboxylate group are not significantly different although one is coordinated (1.246 (4) Å) and the other is uncoordinated (1.266 (3) Å) to the NiII ion. The complex has an inversion center at the Ni atom and the azamacrocyclic ligand adopts thermodynamically the most stable R,R,S,S configuration (Hancock, 1990). The geometry of the tertiary nitrogen atom N3 is normal; C—N distances average 1.458 (2) Å and C—N—C angles are in the range 111.8 (2)–115.7 (2)°, which is indicative of significant contribution of sp2 hybridization for the nitrogen atom. The shortest Ni···Ni intrachain separation within the one-dimensional chain is 10.960 (1) Å and is 31% greater than the shortest interchain Ni···Ni distance of 8.342 (1) Å.
All pyridine groups of the isonicotinates coordinating NiII ions axially are involved in offset face-to-face π-π stacking interactions (centroid···centroid 3.674 (4) Å), which leads to a supramolecular one-dimensional polymer propagating along the c axis (Fig. 2). The pyridine rings are positioned completely parallel to each other (dihedral angle of 0.0°). The interplanar separation and the offset angle between the ring planes of isonicotinate ions are 3.545 (4) Å and 9.71 (9)°, respectively (Shetty et al., 1996).
Within a one-dimensional chain, the non-coordinated carbonyl oxygen atom of the carboxylate ion forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the secondary amine (N1) of the macrocycle. In addition, the nitrogen atom of isonicotinate ion forms an intermolecular hydrogen bond with the secondary amine (N2) of the macrocycle which joins the molecules into a robust one-dimensional polymer (Table 1).
