Abstract: The title complex of nickel (II) with 3,5-dimethylbenzoic acid, m-methylbenzoic acid and 1,10- phenanthroline was synthesized and characterized. Crystal data for this complex: triclinic, space group
P1, a=1.198 5(2) nm, b=1.315 3(2) nm, c=1.531 8(3) nm, α=92.602(3)°, β=103.292(3)°, γ=114.849(3)°, V=2.104 7(6)

R1=0.067 2, wR2=0.155 5. The crystal structure shows that the nickel ion is coordinated with four nitrogen atoms of two 1,10-phenanthroline molecules and two oxygen atoms of one 3,5-dimethyl benzoic acid molecule, forming a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. The cyclic voltametric behavior of the complex was also investigated. CCDC: 286966. |
