Abstract

The nickel(II) complex of 3-methoxysalicylaldimine, L 2 2 Ni, reacts with lithium, sodium, and potassium salts to afford dimetallic complexes L 2 2 NiNaY and L 2 2 NiLiY (Y=ClO 4 ) and L 2 4 NiKI. Structural analysis performed both in the solid state (X-ray diffraction) and in solution (UV-vis, 1 H, 13 C, and 23 Na NMR spectroscopy, magnetic measurements) points to an almost perfect similitude with the simple model of self-assembling ionophore, initially suggested. The two steps of the process are structurally characterized. L 2 2 Ni-2H 2 O (1) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2 1 /n (No. 14) with two formula weights in a cell having the dimensions a=11.084(1) A, B=4.8503(8) A, c=15.519(1) A, and β=97.85(1) o
