The systematic generation of monodentate bridging ethanoates in dinuclear nickel(II) complexes of asymmetric compartmental ligands

摘要

The presence of five-membered chelating rings drived form the iminic and aminic pendant arms in dinuclear nickel(II) complexes of asymmetric compartmental ligands gives rise to syn-syn bidentate ethanoate bridging in these complexes whereas the introduction of a six-membered chelating ring at the iminic binding site induces an ethanoate shift generating a monodentate bridging ethanoate group.
