Abstract:
In the centrosymmetric title complex, [Ni(C(7)H(7)N(4)O(3))(2)(C(5)H(5)N)(2)], the coordination geometry about the Ni(2+) ion is octahedral, with two deprotonated 1-methyl-3-(p-nitrophenyl)triazenide 1-oxide ions, viz. [O(2)NC(6)H(4)NNN(O)CH(3)](-), acting as bidentate ligands (four-electron donors). Two neutral pyridine (py) molecules complete the coordination sphere in positions trans to each other. The triazenide 1-oxide ligand is almost planar, the largest interplanar angle of 8.80 (12) degrees being between the phenyl ring of the p-nitrophenyl group and the plane defined by the N(3)O moiety. The Ni-N(triazenide), Ni-O and Ni-N(py) distances are 2.0794 (16), 2.0427 (13) and 2.1652 (18) A, respectively.

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
