Complexation of 5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11- tetraazacyclotetradeca-7,14-diene dithiocyanate with Nickel (II) acetate

摘要

The complexation of nickel acetate with tetraaza involves deprotonation of protonated amine nitrogen to form neutral ligand coordinated to the nickel via the four nitrogen atom. The dication complex is paired with thiocyanate anions. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis, UV-VIS and FTIR spectroscopic method. The crystal structure of nickel complex characterized by X-Ray crystallography and adopts square planar geometry.
