Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) complexes with a tetradentate nitrogen donor [N4] macrocyclic ligand, viz. 6,15-dimethyl-8,17diphenyl-7,16-dihydrodibenzo[b,i][1.4.8.11]tetraazacyclotetradecine, were synthesized. Their structures were determined based on elemental analyses, molar conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements, and IR, 1H-NMR (ligand) and electronic spectral studies. Based on an...

The structure of hexaaquanickel(II) bis(hypophosphite), [Ni(H(2)O)(6)](H(2)PO(2))(2), has been determined. The crystals are prismatic. The packing of the Ni and P atoms (not the entire hypophosphite anions) is the same as in the structures of [Co(H(2)O)(6)](H(2)PO(2))(2) and [Co(0.5)Ni(0.5)(H(2)O)(6)](H(2)PO(2))(2). The Ni(II) cations have a pseudo-face-centered cubic cell, with cell parameter ...

co(ii) and cu(ii) promoted base hydrolysis of 2-cyano, 1, lo-phenanthroline was studied. at 298.2°k, cu(ii) reaction is more efficient (by a factor of 20) than either co(ll) and its analogues ni(ii) in promoting base hydrolysis.

The synthesis and characterization of a series of dibenzhydryl-based α-diimine Ni(II) complexes bearing a range of electron-donating or -withdrawing groups are described. Polymerization with ethylene is investigated in detail, involving the activator effect, influence of polymerization conditions on catalyst activity, thermal stability, polymer molecular weight and melting point. All of these N...

In the title cocrystal, [Ni(C(11)H(10)N(3)O(2))(2)]·[Ni(NCS)(2)(C(11)H(11)N(3)O(2))(H(2)O)], both Ni(II) ions are in disorted octa-hedral coordination environments. One Ni(II) ion is coordinated by four N atoms and two O atoms from two tridentate 6-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)picolinate (DPP) ligands, while the other Ni(II) ion is coordinated by a tridentate 6-((3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl))...

A series of metal complexes of Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) having the general composition [M(L)2]Cl2 [where L= m-nitrobenzaldehyde-4-(4'-sulphoamidephenyl)-3-thiosemicarbazone; M = Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II)] have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, spectral (IR and H NMR) studies, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements and thermogravimetric analysis. The spectr...

The reaction of [Ni(L)]Cl(2)·2H(2)O (L = 3,14-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatricyclo [14,4,0(1.18),0(7.12)]docosane) with trans-1,2-cyclopentanedicarboxylic acid (H(2)-cpdc) yields a 1D hydrogen-bonded infinite chain with formula [Ni(L)(H-cpdc(-))(2)] (1). This complex has been characterized by X-ray crystallography, spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. The crystal structure of 1 exhibits a distor...

Using electrospray ionization-ion mobility-mass spectrometry (ESI-IM-MS) a new series of alternative metal binding-5 (amb5) heptapeptides that provide various combinations His, Cys and Asp as potential binding sites are compared for their relative formation complexes with the ions Co(II), Ni(II) Zn(II). These amb5 peptides have general primary structure acetyl-Aa1-Aa2-Gly3-Pro4-Tyr5-Aa6-Aa7, wh...

Knowledge of the structure and speciation of aqueous Ni(II)-chloride complexes is important for understanding Ni behavior in hydrometallurgical extraction. The effect of concentration on the first-shell structure of Ni(II) in aqueous NiCl2 and NiCl2-MgCl2 solutions was investigated by Ni K edge X-ray absorption (XAS) and UV-Vis spectroscopy at ambient conditions. Both techniques show that no la...
