Abstract
The title compound, [Ni(C 16 H 36 N 4 )](C 12 H 4 N 4 ) 2 , consists of cationic (C-meso-5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane)nickel(II) entities and 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane anions. The Ni atom is surrounded by four N atoms from the tetraaza macrocycle in a square-planar arrangement. The average Ni-N distance is 1.953 (3) A. The TCNQ − radical anions are arranged so as to form discrete dimers with the usual twist-type π overlap which leads to a diamagnetic ground state. The intra- and interdimer separations between the mean molecular planes within a TCNQ column are 3.081 (5) and 5.113 (5) A, respectively
