Abstract

A novel complex [K(NCS)3] · [Ni(N2C2H8)3] has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction. It crystalizes in trigonal system, and space group is P-3c1 with parameters: a = b = 11.6131(4) Å, c = 16.832(11) Å, γ = 120°, and Z = 4. The configuration of crystal consists of one [K(NCS)3]2− ion and one [Ni(en)3]2+ cation. The potassium ion is located in the symmetry center and octahedrally coordinated by six nitrogen atoms, the adjacent potassium ions were connected into an infinite one-dimensional chain structure via the isothiocyanato group bridge ligand. There are significant weak intermolecular hydrogen bond intractions between the sulphur atom of the isothiocyanato group and the nitrogen atom of [Ni(en)3] moiety, and the complex can be viewed as an unusual corner-sharing one-dimensional extended polymer.

Index Abstract

The title compound, (S, R Fc )-N-1-(2-diphenylphosphino) ferrocenylethyl-2-hydroxyl- 3,5-di-tert-butylbenzalimine was synthesized by the treatment of (S, R Fc )-N-1-(2-diphenylphosphino)ferrocenylamine with 3,5-di-tert-butyl salicylaldehyde and its crystal structure determined. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the molecular structure of the title compound is enantiomerically pure.
