Aj. Blake et al., NEW POLYNUCLEAR NICKEL-COMPLEXES WITH A VARIETY OF PYRIDONATE AND CARBOXYLATE LIGANDS, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (19), 1995, pp. 1983-1985
A general synthetic strategy for making, and structures and some prope
rties of, several new polynuclear nickel complexes of pyridonate ligan
ds are reported: these complexes include a linear trinuclear complex [
Ni-3(chp)(4)(O(2)CMe)(2)(MeOH)(6)], a tetranuclear cubane [Ni-4(OMe)(4
)(eta-chp)(chp)(3)(MeOH)(7)] and two undecanuclear complexes 11(mu(3)-
OH)(6)(O(2)CMe)(6)(mhp)(9)(H2O)(3)]2[CO3] and [Ni-11(mu(3)-OH)(6)(O(2)
CMe)(7)(mhp)(9)(Hmhp)(2)] (Hchp and Hmhp = 6-chloro- and 6-methyl-2-py
ridone respectively).
