Abstract

Two new nickel complexes with a new 1,2-dithiolate ligand, (Bu 4N) 2[Ni(nbdt) 2] (1) and (Bu 4N) [Ni(nbdt) 2] (2) (nbdt=4-nitro-benzene-1,2-dithiolate), have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray single-crystal structure determination, cyclic voltammetry, ESR, UV/Vis spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Complex 2 was obtained by oxidation of complex 1 with I 2. The crystal structure determination reveals that the central Ni atoms in complexes 1 and 2 are in slightly distorted square-planar coordination environment. The cyclic voltammetric studies show that there are two oxidation peaks at 0.15 and 0.85 V for complex 1. The antiferromagnetic interaction dominates the magnetic properties in complex 2.
