Abstract
The hexakis(methylamine) complexes of nickel(II)-chloride, -bromide and -iodide have been prepared using-gas phase preparation procedure. The thermal decomposition starts with the release of four moles of the organic ligand. The bis(methylamine) intermediate decomposes in one step to the pure nickel(II) halide in the case of the chloride compound, however one and a half moles of methylamine containing intermediates were identified for the bromide and iodide analogues. The UV/VIS and the far IR spectra of the hexakis complexes show a typical octahedral environment around the central nickel(II) ion.
