Conclusion
The study reports the crystal structure of a nickel(II) complex with a distorted octahedral coordination geometry.
Supporting Evidence
- The nickel(II) cation in the complex has a distorted octahedral geometry.
- The study includes extensive hydrogen bonding interactions in the crystal structure.
- The DABT ligand twists with a dihedral angle of 9.96°.
Takeaway
Scientists made a special nickel compound that has a unique shape, which could help in understanding how it interacts with other molecules.
Methodology
The compound was synthesized by mixing DABT, NiCl2, thiodiacetic acid, and NaOH in an aqueous solution, followed by refluxing and crystallization.
