Bis(2-iminomethyl-5-methoxyphenolato)nickel(II)

The title compound, [Ni(C8H8NO2)2], is a centrosymmetric mononuclear nickel(II) complex. The NiII ion, lying on an inversion centre, is four-coordinated in a square-planar geometry by two phenolate O and two imine N atoms from two symmetry-related 2-iminomethyl-5-methoxyphenolate ligands. In the cry...

Description
Summary:The title compound, [Ni(C8H8NO2)2], is a centrosymmetric mononuclear nickel(II) complex. The NiII ion, lying on an inversion centre, is four-coordinated in a square-planar geometry by two phenolate O and two imine N atoms from two symmetry-related 2-iminomethyl-5-methoxyphenolate ligands. In the crystal, molecules are linked into corrugated layers parallel to (100) by N—H...O hydrogen bonds.
