Abstract. The crystal structure of [Ni(sac) 2 py 4 ]´2 py (sac = saccharinate anion; py = pyridine) has been solved by single crystal X-ray diffractometry. lt crystallises in the orthorhombic space group Pcan with Z = 4. Coordination of the saccharinate anion to the metal centre occurs, in a rather unusual way, through the carbonylic oxygen atom. The IR and Raman spectra of the complex have been analyzed in detail and assigned on the basis of the structural data. The thermal behaviour was investigated by means of TG and DTA methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
