摘要:
                                A Ni(II) complex of the composition Ni(HNta)(.)4H(2)O (I) was synthesized. Its structure was found to consist of neutral mononuclear [Ni(HNta)(H2O)(3)] complexes and crystallization water molecules. The Ni atom has octahedral surrounding and is coordinated to tridentate-chelate HNta(2-) ligand through the N atom and O atoms of two deprotonated acetate groups and through the O atoms of three water molecules. The structure of I was compared with those of the Zn(HNta)(.)4H(2)O and Co(HNta)(.)4H(2)O complexes isostructural to I. Thermogravimetric method showed that the decomposition of compound I occurs through several successive stages of dehydration, deaquation, decarboxylation, and the formation of inorganic residue.
