A New Complex [Ni（L）2]·2H2O Containing an Interesting Six-membered Water Ring （HL = 2-Iminomethyl-6-methoxy-phenol）

A new complex, [Ni（L）2]·2（H2O） I （HL = 2-iminomethyl-6-methoxyphenol）, has been synthesized and structurally determined. The crystal belongs to the trigonal system, space group R3- with a = 1.9341 （3）, b = 1.9341 （3）, C = 1.2048（2） nm, V = 3.9029（11） nm^3, Mr = 395.05, Z = 9, Dc = 1.513 g·cm^-3, F（000） = 1854,μ= 1.153 mm^-1 and S = 1.014. Each Ni^Ⅱ atom is four-coordinated by two N and two O atoms from two different L anions to give a slightly distorted square-plane geometry. The complex forms a 3-D network structure through N-H...O and O-H...O hydrogen bonds containing an interesting six-membered water ring.
