Abstract
The structures oftrans-1NH,8NH- (I) andcis-1NH,8NH-(II)-2,5,7,10,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradeca-4,11-dienenickel(II) diperchlorates have been investigated by X-ray diffractometric methods. CompoundI crystallizes in a monoclinic system, space groupP21,Z=4,a=11.225(1),b=13.710(1),c=15.898(2) Å,β=109.22(1)°. CompoundII crystallizes in an orthorhombic system, space groupP212121,Z=4,a=15.529(2),b=14.129(2),c=10.621(1) Å. The structures were solved by the heavy-atom method followed by a series of Fourier syntheses, and refined by full-matrix least squares to give forI andII R=0.051 (for 3787 independent reflections) andR=0.048 (for 1494 reflections), respectively. Conformational analysis of chelate rings and of the macrocyclic ring was performed forI andII, and the results were compared with those of some known 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradeca-4,11-dienenickel (II) complexes. A novel conformation of the macrocycle was found in cationI. Conformations of the methyl groups are forI andII 2(a),7(e),10(a),14(e) and 2(a),7(e),10(a),14(a), respectively, with a 1,3-syn-axial interaction of the 2,14-methyl groups inII. The absolute configuration of cationI is 1N(S), 2(R), 7(R), 8N(S), 10(R), 14(S), and differs from that of cationII by 1N(R) exclusively (1N-epimeric compounds).
