Bis(N-isopropyl-5-bromosalicylaldiminato)nickel(ll)

Abstract

Bis[4-bromo-2-(isopropyliminomethyl)- phenolato]nickel(II), [Ni(CIoH]IBrNO)2], M, = 540.90, triclinic, Pi, a = 8.789 (6), b = 10.203 (7), c = 6.075 (4) A, a=103.92(5), /3=80-23(5), y= 110.21 (5) °, V = 493-9 (6)/~ 3, Z= 1, Dx = 1-818 Mg m -3, A(Mo Ka) = 0-71069 A, br(Mo Ka) = 5.01 mm-1, F(000) = 272, T = 293 K, R = 0-055 for 1189 unique observed reflections [F > 3or(F)]. The Ni atom at the symmetry centre is trans-planar coordinated by two N and two O atoms. The intraligand O--Ni--N angles are 87-6 and 92.4°; the Ni---O and Ni--N bond lengths are 1.829 and 1.938 A, respectively.
