Two new pendant-arm quinquedentate aza-macrocyclic ligands have been prepared, and their nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes found to undergo reversible rearrangements between approximately trigonal-bipyramidal structures at neutral pH, and protonated square-planar structures at low pH in which the pendant arms are protonated and non-co-ordinating.The crystal structure of 1>2 1 = 11-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-1,4,7,11-tetra-azacyclotetradecane> establishes an approximately trigonal-bipyramidal geometry for the complex.Crystals are orthorhombic, space group Pna21, with a = 14.559(3), b = 15.337(3), c = 10.322(3) Angstroem, and Z = 4.The final R was 0.108 for 978 observed reflections with I/?(I) > 2.5.The axial N-Ni-N bond angle is 172(1) deg, and and the equatorial bond angles are 107(2), 107(1), and 144(2) deg.Ni-N distances range from 2.04(2) to 2.17(3) Angstroem.The nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of L1 are isomorphous.
