Deskripsi
The nitrogen–sulfur Schiff base proligand S-n-octyl 3-(1-phenylethylidene)dithiocarbazate, C17H26N2S2 (HL), was prepared by reaction of S-octyl dithiocarbamate with acetophenone. Treatment of HL with nickel acetate yielded the complex bis[S-n-octyl 3-(1-phenylethylidene)dithiocarbazato]nickel(II), [Ni(C17H25N2S2)2] (NiL2), which was shown to adopt a tetrahedrally distorted cis-square-planar coordination geometry, with the NiSN planes of the two ligands forming a dihedral angle of 21.66 (6)°. Changes in the geometry of the L ligand upon chelation of Ni2+ are described, involving a ca 180° rotation around the N(azomethine)—C(thiolate) bond.
