Abstract

Three new planar Ni(II) dithiocarbamate complexes; [Ni(4-dpmpzdtc)2] (1), [Ni(4-dpmpzdtc)(PPh3)(NCS)] (2) and [Ni(bupcbzdtc)(PPh3)(NCS)] (3) (where, 4-dpmpzdtc=4-(diphenylmethyl)piperazinecarbodithioato anion, bupcbzdtc=N-butyl-N-(4-chlorobenzyl))dithiocarbamato anion and PPh3=triphenylphosphine) with “NiS4” and “NiS2PN” chromophore units were synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray structural analysis as well as UV–Vis, IR and NMR (1H, 13C and 31P) spectroscopy. For 2, 1H–1H COSY spectrum was also recorded. Single crystal X-ray structural analysis of 1–3, reveals a slightly distorted square planar geometry in all three complexes wherein the steric and electronic influence of auxiliary ligands PPh3 and NCS− induces change in the bonding parameters of the latter two complexes (especially in 3). Nickel sulfide nanoparticles were produced from complex 1 by solvothermal synthesis. The morphology and a qualitative phase analysis of the nanoparticles are also viewed in the study.
