Abstract:
The title compound, [Ni2(C8H6N3)2(C2H3O2)2(C5H8N2)2] or [Ni(μ-OOCCH3)(2-PyPz)(Me2PzH)]2 (1) [2-PyPz = 3-(pyridin-2-yl) pyrazole; Me2PzH = 3,5-dimethyl pyrazole] was synthesized from Ni(OOCCH3)2·4H2O, 2-PyPzH, Me2PzH and tri-ethyl-amine as a base. Compound 1 {[Ni2(C30H34N10Ni2O4)]} at 100 K has monoclinic (P21/n) symmetry and the mol-ecules have crystallographic inversion symmetry. Mol-ecules of 1 comprise an almost planar dinuclear NiII core with an N4O2 coordination environment. The equatorial plane consists of N3,O coordination derived from one of the bidentate acetate O atoms and three of the N atoms of the chelating 2-PyPz ligand while the axial positions are occupied by neutral Me2PzH and the second O atom of the acetate unit. The Ni atoms are bridged by the nitro-gen atom of a deprotonated 2-PyPz ligand. Compound 1 exhibits various inter- and intra-molecular C-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Metal-Ligand Bonds
In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...
Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can...
