Abstract

ABSTRACT: The chemical preparation, spectroscopic characterization, and crystal structures of two new ion-pair complexes, [4NO2 BzIQl]2 [Ni(mnt)2 ](1 ) and [4NO2 BzIQl]2 [Ni(i-mnt)2 ] (2 ) ([4NO2 BzIQl] + = 4-nitrobenzyl isoquinolinium, mnt 2− = maleonitriledithiolate and i-mnt 2− = iso-maleonitriledithiolate), have been reported. Both1 and2 crystallize in the triclinic system in space group P -1. The cations of1 stack into a 1D alternating column through C–H···π, π···π and p···π interactions, while the [4NO2 BzIQl] + cations (C) and [Ni(i-mnt)2 ] 2− anions (A) of2 stack into another 1D alternative column with a A–CC–A–CC–A sequence. Weak N···Ni, C–H···Ni, C–H···N, C–H···S, and p···π interactions observed in1 and2 consolidate a 3D network structure. Thermal analysis reveals that1 and2 are stable up to 211°C and 208°C, respectively, and the final decomposition product of two complexes is nickel oxide.
