The Ni-N and Ni-O distances average 2.07(1) and 2.14(2) Å respectively. The two Ni-O distances are nearly equivalent.     

Crystal and molecular structure of: 5-(1-oxoethyl)-1-methyl-2-(5-bromo-6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)-6-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-7-one and 5-(1-oxoethyl)-1-methyl-2-(5-bromo-6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)-6-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane

X-ray crystallographic studies of the two title compounds have shown that the molecules crystallize in the same triclinic space group, , with very similar cell dimensions. For C₂₁H₂₁BrO₄,a=12.056(5),b=13.206(5),c=7.595(3)Å, =90.38(3), =106.07(3) and =124.42(3)° and for C₂₁H₂₃BrO₃,a=12.076(6),b=13.090(5),c=7.490(3)Å, =92.65(5), =104.90(5) and =124.55(5)°. Both compounds possess the oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane bridged ring system and differ only at the carbon to the ring oxygen where the Csp³ in the ether is replaced by Csp²=O in the lactone. Both cyclohexane rings adopt distorted chair conformations and the lactone and ether rings approximate closely to the envelope conformation. The bromine substituent at C(4) results in distortion of the naphthalene ring. Both molecules pack with the naphthalene rings parallel to each other with interplanar spacings of 3.71 Å in the ether and 3.66Å in the lactone.

(I) and (II) are isostructural but (III) is of a different type. All three structures are characterized by layers of P₂O₇ groups alternating with layers of mixed metal atoms. Differences are seen in the conglomerate bonding patterns of B atoms and in the irregular geometry of Ag in (I) and (II) compared to the octahedral bonding seen for Na in (III). The differences in structure may be understood in terms of the ratios of the ionic radii of A and B atoms.

The hard, transparent, colorless crystals give sharp, intense diffraction peaks; this may be related to the strong three dimensional hydrogen bonding involving the oxime groups as well as the hydrazine hydrogens. Bond distances and angles as well as torsion angles are in good agreement for the two independent molecules and are normal. Although there is near two-fold symmetry relating the two molecules, positions of neighboring groups removes a twofold crystallographic axis.
