(Received 11 February 2009; accepted 19 February 2009; online 25 February 2009)

In the title mononuclear nickel(II) complex, [Ni(C20H20N2O2)], the Ni atom is four-coordinated in a square-planar geometry by the four donor atoms of the Schiff base ligand. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 9.4 (2)°. The cyclo­hexyl group adopts a C-form chair conformation.

Comment top

Nickel(II) complexes play an important role in both bioinorganic chemistry and coordination chemistry (Suh et al., 1996; Dey et al., 2004; Angulo et al., 2001; Ramadevi et al., 2005; Edison et al., 2004). As a further study of the structures of such complexes, the title mononuclear nickel(II) complex, (I), is reported in this paper.

In (I), the Ni atom is four-coordinated in a square planar geometry by the four donor atoms of the Schiff base ligand. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 9.4 (2)°. The cyclohexyl group adopts C-form chair conformation with the generalized puckering coordinates; q(3)=-0.569 (1)Å, q(2)=0.009 (1)Å and ϕ=96.288 (1)° (Cremer & Pople, 1975) (Fig. 1).

Experimental top

Salicylaldehyde (0.2 mmol, 24.5 mg) and cyclohexyl-1,2-diamine (0.1 mmol, 11.4 mg) were dissolved in 10 ml methanol. To the mixture was added dropwise a 5 ml me thanol solution of nickel(II) nitrate hexahydrate (0.2 mmol, 58.2 mg) with stirring. The final solution was allowed to stand in air for two weeks, yielding red block-shaped crystals of (I).

Refinement top

H atoms were constrained to ideal geometries, with C—H = 0.93–0.97Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

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.
