N-Cyclohexyl-1,3-diaminopropane (0.1 mmol, 15.6 mg) and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde (0.1 mmol, 8.6 mg) were dissolved in MeOH (10 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 10 min to give a clear yellow solution, to which was added an aqueous solution (5 ml) of NiCl2·4H2O (0.1 mmol, 20.2 mg) with stirring. The mixture was stirred for another 10 min at room temperature and filtered. After keeping the filtrate in air for 9 d, green block crystals of (I) separated. The crystals were isolated, washed three times with MeOH and dried in a vacuum desiccator using anhydrous CaCl2 (yield 51.3%). Analysis, found: C 60.89, H 7.27, N 7.30%; calculated for C40H54.49Cl2N4NiO3.245: C 62.16, H 7.11, N 7.25%.
Attempts to refine the water O atom (O2) with full occupancy resulted in a high Uiso value, and hence it was refined with partial occupancy. The occupancy was initially refined to 0.623 (8) and later fixed at 0.62. Atoms H2C and H2D were located in a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically, with the O—H and H···H distances restrained to 0.84 (1) and 1.37 (2) Å, respectively, and with a fixed Uiso(H) value of 0.08 Å2. All other H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with N—H = 0.90 Å and C—H distances in the range 0.93–0.98 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2–1.5Ueq(C,N).

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. |

Schiff base complexes have been studied extensively, due to their excellent biological activities (Ren et al., 2002; Deschamps et al., 2003; Pal et al., 2003). Nickel(II) complexes are very important in coordination chemistry (Dey et al., 2004; Christensen et al., 1997). The structures of a large number of mono-, di- and polynuclear Schiff base nickel(II) complexes have been reported (Vance et al., 1997; Carbonaro et al., 1999; Rybak-Akimova et al., 1998). In order to investigate the structures of such nickel complexes, the title new nickel(II) complex, (I), is reported here.
Complex (I) is a mononuclear nickel(II) compound, with the NiII atom lying on an inversion centre (Fig. 1). The unit cell contains an [Ni(C20H26N2O)2]2+ cation, two Cl− anions and two water molecules, each with site occupancy of 0.62. The NiII atom is four-coordinated in a square-planar geometry by two imine N and two phenolate O atoms from two Schiff bases. All bond angles (Table 1) subtended at the NiII centre are comparable with the values observed in other Schiff base nickel(II) complexes (Gomes et al., 2000; Chakraborty et al., 2004).
In the crystal structure, the molecules are linked through intermolecular O—H···Cl and N—H···Cl hydrogen bonds (Table 2), forming layers parallel to the bc plane (Fig. 2).
