Abstract

Abstract : The syntheses and structures of four new bis(pyrazol‐1‐yl)acetate‐ or bis(3, 5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl)acetate‐based bis‐ligand nickel(II) complexes [Ni(bdmpzmp)2 ] (1 ), [Ni(bdmpzpen)2 ] (2 ), [Ni(bdmpza)2 ] (3 ), and [Ni(bpza)2 ] (4 ) are described. The results of single crystal structure determinations reveal for all four complexes κ 3 ‐coordination of the scorpionate ligands. The sterically hindered bis(3, 5‐di‐ tert ‐butyl‐pyrazol‐1‐yl)acetateto (bd t bpza) ligand allows the synthesis of the nickel(II) chlorido complex [Ni(bd t bpza)Cl] (5 ). Furthermore, controlled formation of a novel trinuclear linear complex [Ni(bdmpza)2 {Ni(acac)(bdmpza)}2 ] (6 ) [bdmpza = bis(3, 5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl)acetate] by a self‐assembling reaction and alkali metal‐mediated template syntheses of [Na{Ni(acac)(bdmpza)}3 ]NO3 (7 ), [Na{Ni(acac)(bdmpza)}3 ]I (8 ) and [Li{Ni(acac)(bdmpza)}3 ]NO3 (9 ) are reported. ESI MS allowed a detailed characterization in solution and is supported by X‐ray structure analysis. Compounds7, 8 and9 exhibit [12‐MC‐3] metallacrown structures with a sixfold coordinated alkali metal ion in the center. The magnetic properties are studied by SQUID. Crystallographic data reveal broken symmetry in the solid state for all three [12‐MC‐3] metallacoronates7, 8 and9 . The linear structure of [Ni(bdmpza)2 {Ni(acac)(bdmpza)}2 ] (6 ) (length ≈ 2 nm) obtained through synthesis without template, as well as the molecular structure of the [12‐MC‐3] metallacoronates7, 8 and9 (∅ ≈ 1.3 nm) are at the nanoscale. Abstract : Trinuclear nickel(II) complexes based on the bis(3, 5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl)acetato and the acac ligand are formed by self‐assembling reactions. Controlled by alkali metal ions as templates either linear complexes or [12‐MC‐3] metallacrown/metallcoronate structures are formed.
