Crystal structure of bis-(aceto-phenone 4-benzoyl-thio-semicarbazonato-κ(2) N (1),S)nickel(II).

ABSTRACT: In the asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Ni(C16H14N3OS)2], the nickel ion is tetra-coordinated in a distorted square-planar geometry by two independent mol-ecules of the ligand which act as mononegative bidentate N,S-donors and form two five-membered chelate rings. The ligands are in trans (E) conformations with respect to the C=N bonds. The close approach of hydrogen atoms to the Ni(2+) atom suggests anagostic inter-actions (Ni⋯H-C) are present. The crystal structure is built up by a network of two C-H⋯O inter-actions. One of the inter-actions forms inversion dimers and the other links the mol-ecules into infinite chains parallel to [100]. In addition, a weak C-H⋯π inter-action is also present.
