Abstract
The complex sits in a general position. Each NiII ion has an N4Cl2 coordination sphere. Weak hydrogen bonding exists between three of the amino groups and the chloride ions of an adjacent molecule. Chains of molecules, linked by the hydrogen bonding and short Cl⋯Cl contacts, are well separated by the 3-methoxyaniline ligands.
The reaction of nickel(II) chloride with 3-methoxyaniline yielded dichloridotetrakis(3-methoxyaniline)nickel(II), [NiCl2(C7H9NO)4], as yellow crystals. The NiII ion is pseudo-octahedral with the chloride ions trans to each other. The four 3-methoxyaniline ligands differ primarily due to different conformations about the Ni—N bond, which also affect the hydrogen bonding. Intermolecular N—H⋯ Cl hydrogen bonds and short Cl⋯Cl contacts between molecules link them into chains parallel to the b axis.
