Control of the coordination mode of NO2- by the nature of the amine ligand. Crystal structure of the neutral zigzag polymeric compound [mer-Ni(N-(2-aminoethyl)-1,3-propanediamine)-(NO2)(2)] (I)
Rw. Wen et al., Control of the coordination mode of NO2- by the nature of the amine ligand. Crystal structure of the neutral zigzag polymeric compound [mer-Ni(N-(2-aminoethyl)-1,3-propanediamine)-(NO2)(2)] (I), J COORD CH, 48(4), 1999, pp. 443-448
A polymeric zigzag complex, [mer-Ni(N-(2-aminoethyl)-1,3-propanediamine)(NO
2)(2)] (I), containing a bridging mu-nitro(N,O), was obtained and its cryst
al structure was determined. Magnetic studies show the compound is antiferr
omagnetic. These results contrast to those for [Ni(3,3'-diamino-N-methyldip
ropylamine)(NO2)(2)] (II), which is a monomer.
