Abstract
NiBr2 (DME) (DME = ethylene glycol dimethyl ether) reacts with 2-pyridinal- methyl-N-2,6-diisopropylphenylimine (L) in a 1:1 molar ratio in CH2Cl2 to g ive NiBr2(L) and [NiBrL2]Br . 4CH(2)Cl(2) in 52% and 14% yield, respectivel y. The crystal of [NiBrL2]Br . 4CHCl(3) obtained from CHCl3 was structurall y characterized.
