A dinuclear pyrazolato-N : N '-bridged dinickel(II) complex of 1,3-bis(5-chlorosalicylideneamino)propan-2-ol
Abstract
The title compound, mu-[1,3-bis(5-chloro-2-oxidobenzylideneamino)propan-2-olato(3-)]-O,N,O':O',N',O"-mu-(3,5-dimethylpyrazolato)-N:N' -dinickel(II), [Ni-2(C17H13Cl2N2O3)(C5H7N2)], has crystallographic mirror symmetry. The Ni atoms in the dinuclear structure are linked symmetrically by the N atoms of the 3,5-dimethylpyrazole group and by the alkoxo O atom. Each Ni-II ion is coordinated by two N atoms and two O atoms, forming a square plane with trans-N2O2 geometry.
