The title complex, [Ni(C14H12NO2)2], lies about an inversion center. The NiII atom is coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry by two O atoms and two N atoms from two 2-[imino(phenyl)methyl]-5-methoxyphenolate ligands. The dihedral angle between the symmetry-unique phenyl and benzene rings is 73.2 (1)°.

Complex (I) was prepared from a mixture of 2-hydroxy-4-methoxy benzophenone (1 mmol, 0.228 g), ammonia (25%, 0.5 ml), triethylamine (0.5 ml), nickel(II) acetate tetrahydrate (0.5 mmol, 0.127 g) and methanol(8 mL) sealed in a 15 mL teflon-lined stainless steel bomb, and kept at 393 K for 120 h under autogenous pressure. After the reaction was slowly cooled to room temperature, green rectangular plates were produced (yield: 63%, based on Nickel). Anal. Calcd for C28H24N2NiO4(%): C, 65.78; H, 4.73; N, 5.48.

H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined with a riding model, with distances 0.86(N—H), 0.96(CH3) or 0.93 Å (aromatic ring), and with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(aromatic ring, N—H) or Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(CH3).

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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. |

2-Imino(methyl)phenol compounds have been studied for many years (Jiang et al., 2003; Zhang et al., 2008, 2009; Bernés 2010; Liu et al., 2009) and have attracted interest because of their magnetic properties. The crystal structure of the title compound (I) is presented herein.
The molecular structure of (I) is shown in Fig .1. The NiII ion lies on a centre of inversion and is coordinated by two O atoms and two N atoms from two bidentate ligands, forming a slightly distorted square-planar geometry. The dihedral angle between the symmetry unique phenyl and benzene rings is 73.2 (1) °.
