摘要:
Nickel(II) complexes with the general formula [Ni(L-1)(2)(L-2)(2)(H2O)(2)], where L-1 = 2-methylimidazole (Meiz), 1,2-dimethylimidazole We(2)iz), iso-quinoline (iqu) and 4-furopyridine (fupy), L-2 = formate and acetate, have been prepared and characterized. The structures of four complexes [Ni(MeiZ)(2)(HCOO)(2)(H2O)(2)] (1), [Ni(Me(2)iz)(2)(HCOO)(2)(H2O2] (2), [Ni(iqu)(2)(CH3COO)(2)(H2O)(2)] (3) and [Ni (fupy)(2)(CH3COO)(2)(H2O)(2)] (4) were determined by X-ray diffraction methods. The chromophore of these compounds, {NiO2O'N-2(2)}, is formed by four oxygen atoms and two nitrogen atoms. The structures of complexes 2, 3 and 4 are formed by two-dimensional networks which consist of individual molecules linked together by O-(HO)-O-... hydrogen bonds from carboxylate groups to aqua ligands. In complex 1, the formation of a three-dimensional network is supplemented by N-(HO)-O-..., hydrogen bonds from the coordinated oxygen atom to the secondary nitrogen atom of an imidazole molecule from another unit. All complexes show magnetic behavior typical for zero-field splitting systems. The axial parameter of the zero-field splitting, D, adopts moderate-negative values and it correlates with the axial distortion of the coordination polyhedron. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
