Abstract: | The title compound, diacetylpyridine bis(S‐methylisothiosemicarbazonato)]iodonickel(II), Ni(C13H18N7S2)I], is the first example of a complex involving the 2N coordination of the isothiosemicarbazide moiety. 2,6‐Diacetylpyridine bis(S‐methylisothiosemicarbazone), as a potentially pentadentate ligand (N5), is coordinated as a tetradentate species, whereby one (deprotonated) isothiosemicarbazide moiety is coordinated in the usual way (1N4N), but the other (neutral) is bonded via the 2N atom only, the fourth ligator being the pyridine nitrogen. The difference in coordination mode of the isothiosemicarbazide moiety is reflected in the 1N—2N bond lengths of 1.359 (4) and 1.379 (3) Å in the deprotonated and undeprotonated moieties, respectively. The structure contains three fused chelate rings in a 5:5:6 arrangement. The six‐membered ring has a non‐planar conformation. |
