[6,13-Bis(2,4-dichloro-benzo-yl)-5,7,12,14-tetra-methyl-dibenzo[b,i][1,4,8,11]tetra-aza-cyclo-tetra-decinato- κ⁴N]nickel(II) acetone monosolvate.
In the title complex, [Ni(C₃₆H₂₆Cl₄N₄O₂)]·C₃H₆O, two 2,4-dichloro-benzoyl groups are grafted onto the methine groups of the Ni(II) complex Ni(tmtaa) (H₂tmtaa = 5,7,12,14-tetra-methyl-4,11-dihydro-dibenzo[b,i][1,4,8,11]tetra-aza-cyclo-tetra-decine). The complex has the shape of a saddle. The Ni atom is tetra-coordinated by the four N atoms of the macrocycle, forming a slightly tetra-hedrally distorted square-planar geometry. The metal is displaced by 0.0101 (8) Å from the N₄ mean plane. The aromatic rings of the 2,4-dichloro-benzoyl groups form dihedral angles of 87.1 (2) and 82.1 (2)° with the N₄ mean plane.
