Abstract
A supramolecular complex, bis(2-amino-3-methylpyridinium) diaquabis(pyridinedicarboxylato)nicke-late(II) dihydrate, (Hampy)2[Ni(pydc)2(H2O)2] · 2 H2O (ampy = 2-amino-3-methylpyridine, H2pydc = 2,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid or isocinchomeronic acid) (1) has been prepared and characterized by elemental, spectral (IR and UV-vis.), thermal analysis, magnetic measurement and single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Ni(II) ion exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry coordinated by nitrogen and oxygen atoms of two pyridinedicarboxylate ligands, oxygen atoms from the two aqua ligands. The supramolecular network is constructed by N–H · · · O strong hydrogen bonds, π-π and C–H · · · π interactions.
