2O1,O6)nickel(II)The title compound, [Ni(C9H9O3)2], was synthesized by the reaction of 3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde with nickel(II) nitrate in methanol solution. The asymmetric unit onsists of two half-molecules; each Ni atom lies on a centre of symmetry. The NiII ions are coordinated by four O atoms from two deprotonated 3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde ligands in a slightly distorted square-planar coordination environment.
All chemicals were of AR grade. 3-Ethoxysalicylaldehyde (33.2 mg, 0.2 mmol) and nickel(II) nitrate hexahydrate (29.0 mg, 0.1 mmol) were refluxed for 30 min in 10 ml methanol solution. The mixture was cooled to room temperature and filtered. Keeping the filtrate in air for a week, yielded red block crystals suitable for X-ray analysis.
H atoms were placed in idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms with C–H distances in the range 0.93–0.97 Å, and with Uiso(H) set at 1.2Ueq(C) and 1.5Ueq(methyl C). Although no significant density was located in the solvent accessible VOIDS of 47.00 Å3, these might be able to accommodate disordered water molecules.

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. |

The authors interest in nickel(II) complexes arises from the fact that Ni(II) is the active center of the urease enzyme (Carlsson et al., 2004; Volkmer et al., 1996). The author reports herein the crystal structure of the title nickel(II) complex.
In the asymmetric unit of the title compound, there are two independent complex (Fig. 1). Each NiII ion lies on an inversion center and is coordinated by four O atoms from two deprotonated 3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde ligands. The coordinate bond values (Table 1) in each molecule are comparable to each other between the two independent complex molecules. The structure is similar to other nickel(II) complexes derived from the derivatives of salicylaldehyde (Li & Chen, 2006; Mounts & Fernando, 1974).
