(Received 11 November 2007; accepted 21 December 2007; online 4 January 2008)

The NiII atom in the title complex, aqua­bis(2-formyl-6-meth­oxy­phenolato-κ2O,O′)nickel(II), [Ni(C8H7O3)2(H2O)], is five-coordinated by four O atoms from two o-vanillinate ligands and one water mol­ecule in a slightly distorted square-pyramidal geometry (τ = 0.06). In the crystal structure, the mol­ecules are linked into dimers by inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Comment top

The structural and magnetic properties of binuclear and polymetallic nickel(II) complexes with various bridging ligands have received considerable attention in the past three decades (Meyer et al., 1982; Soules et al., 1988; Edwards et al., 1992; Asokan et al., 1998). In this paper, we report here the synthesis and crystal structure of the title complex, a new nickel complex.

The molecular structure of the title complex, (I), is shown in Fig.1. The NiII atom is five-coordinated in which four oxygen O(1), O(2), O(4), O(5) atoms from two o-vanillin ligands and one water molecule in a slightly distorted square pyramidal geometry, the tau value is 0.06 (Addison et al., 1984). NI(1), O(1), C(1), C(2), C(3), O(2) and Ni(1),O(4), C(9), C(10), C(11), O(5) form two six-membered chelating rings, which are essentially coplanar with a dihedral angle of 6.7 (0.19)°.

As seen in Fig. 2, the molecules are linked into dimers by intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1).

Experimental top

Amounts of 304.3 mg (2 mmol) of o-vanillin and 80.00 mg (2 mmol) of NaOH were stirred into 30 ml absolute ethanol under room room temperature for 20 minutes, nickel chloride hexahydrate in the amount of 237.7 mg (1 mmol) was added, and the mixture was heated with stirring for 7 h and then filtered. The well shaped green polyhedral crystals of [Ni (C8H7O3)2H2O] for structure determination and characterization were separated from the mother liquor by slow evaporation at room temperature after two weeks.

Refinement top

All H-atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C—H (methyl) 0.96, C—H (aromatic) 0.93, C—H 0.93 Å (methylene), O—H 0.85 Å (water), withUiso(H) =1.2Ueq(C).

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.
