Abstract
The reactions of [Ni(L)(H₂O)₂]Cl₂ (L = 2,5,9,12-tetramethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) with terephtalate (tp) and 2,5-pyridinedicarboxylate (pdc) generate one-dimensional nickel(II) complexes, [Ni(L)(H₂O)₂](tp) · ₄H₂O (1) and [Ni(L)(H₂O)₂](pdc)·₄H₂O (2). The structures have been characterized by X-ray crystallography, magnetic susceptibility and spectroscopy. The crystal structures of 1 and 2 show a distorted octahedral coordination geometry around the Ni(II) ion, with secondary amines of the macrocycle and two water molecules at the trans position. Complexes 1 and 2 display the one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded infinite chains. The magnetic behavior of all compounds exhibits weak interchain antiferromagnetic interactions with J values of -1.09(3) for 1 and -1.14(2) cm-1 for 2.
