title: μ-Acetato-κO:O'-[7,23-dibenzyl-15,31-dichloro-3,7,11,19,23,27-hexa-azatri-cyclo-[27.3.1.1]tetra-triconta-1(32),2,11,13,15,17(34),18,27,29(33),30-deca-ene-33,34-diolato-κN,N,N,O,O:N,N,N,O,O]dinickel(II) per-chlorate acetonitrile disolvate.
abstract: The title complex, [Ni(2)(C(42)H(46)Cl(2)N(6)O(2))(C(2)H(3)O(2))]ClO(4)·2CH(3)CN, was synthesized by condensation of 2,6-diformyl-4-chloro-phenol with N,N-bis-(amino-prop-yl)benzyl-amine in the presence of Ni(II) ions. The ligand is a 28-membered macrocycle with two identical pendant arms. The coordination geometries of the Ni atoms are both octa-hedral. The two Ni atoms are bridged by two phenolate O atoms of the macrocyclic ligand and one acetate ligand, with an Ni⋯Ni distance of 3.147 (4) Å.
