Abstract:
In the title compound, [Ni(C 12 H 11 N 2 ) 2 ], the Ni II cation lies on an inversion centre and has a square-planar coordination geometry. This transition metal complex is composed of two deprotonated N , N ′-bidentate 2-[(phenylimino)ethyl]-1 H -pyrrol-1-ide ligands around a central Ni II cation, with the pyrrolide rings and imine groups lying trans to each other. The Ni—N bond lengths range from 1.894 (3) to 1.939 (2) Å and the bite angle is 83.13 (11)°. The Ni—N(pyrrolide) bond is substantially shorter than the Ni—N(imino) bond. The planes of the phenyl rings make a dihedral angle of 78.79 (9)° with respect to the central NiN 4 plane. The molecules are linked into simple chains by an intermolecular C—H...π interaction involving a phenyl β-C atom as donor. Intramolecular C—H...π interactions are also present.
