A new nickel(II) complex, [NiL]·CH₃OH, where H₂Lis 2-phenyl-3,10,18,21-tetraazatetracyclo[20.4.0.0^4,9.0^12,17]hexacosa-2,10,12,14,16,22,24,26-octaene-19,20-dionate(2−)

Abstract

In the title compound, [2‐phenyl‐3,10,18,21‐tetra­azatetracyclo­[20.4.0.04,9.012,17]hexa­cosa‐2,10,12,14,16,22,24,26‐octaene‐19,20‐dionato(2−)]copper(II) methanol solvate, [Cu(C34H28N4O2)]·CH3OH, the NiII atom is coordinated by four N atoms from the doubly deprotonated tetra­aza ligand, L2−, in a square‐planar coordination geometry. O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the complex to the methanol solvent mol­ecule.
