AI Article Synopsis
- The compound discussed is a dinuclear complex featuring nickel (Ni) atoms that are connected by two types of ligands: phenolate O and acetate, creating a symmetric structure.
- Each nickel atom is additionally bound to a specific ligand known as 2-{[(3-chloro-2-hydroxy-prop-yl)(2-pyridylmeth-yl)amino]meth-yl}phenolate, which has five coordinating sites (penta-dentate) around the nickel.
- The overall structure presents octahedral coordination geometry for the nickel atoms, and the system is stabilized by hydrogen bonds between the chloride ions and the hydroxyl oxygens of the ligands.
Article Abstract
The title salt, [Ni(2)(C(16)H(18)ClN(2)O(2))(2)(CH(3)COO)]Cl, features a dinuclear cation in which the Ni atoms are triply bridged by two phenolate O ligands and a bidentate acetate ligand with all of the bridging distances essentially symmetric. Each Ni atom is also coordinated by the amine N, pyridine N and hydr-oxy O atoms of the 2-{[(3-chloro-2-hydroxy-prop-yl)(2-pyridylmeth-yl)amino]meth-yl}phenolate ligand which is, therefore, penta-dentate. The resultant N(3)O(3) donor sets define octa-hedral coordination geometries. The chloride counter-anion is connected to the cation via two O(hydr-oxy)-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.
