    Abstract:
    The reaction of a tridentate Schiff base ligand HL (2-[(3-dimethylaminopropylimino)-methyl]-phenol) with Ni(II) acetate or perchlorate salts in the presence of azide as coligand has led to two new Ni(II) complexes of formulas [Ni(3)L(2)(OAc)(2)(μ(1,1)-N(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)]·2H(2)O (1) and [Ni(2)L(2)(μ(1,1)-N(3))(μ(1,3)-N(3))](n)(2). Single crystal X-ray structures show that complex 1 is a linear trinuclear Ni(II) compound containing a μ(2)-phenoxido, an end-on (EO) azido and a syn-syn acetato bridge between the terminal and the central Ni(II) ions. Complex 2 can be viewed as a one-dimensional (1D) chain in which the triply bridged (di-μ(2)-phenoxido and EO azido) dimeric Ni(2) units are linked to each other in a zigzag pattern by a single end-to-end (EE) azido bridge. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility studies indicate the presence of moderate ferromagnetic exchange coupling in complex 1 with J value of 16.51(6) cm(-1). The magnetic behavior of 2 can be fitted in an alternating ferro- and antiferromagnetic model [J(FM) = +34.2(2.8) cm(-1) and J(AF) = -21.6(1.1) cm(-1)] corresponding to the triple bridged dinuclear core and EE azido bridge respectively. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to corroborate the magnetic results of 1 and 2. The contributions of the different bridges toward magnetic interactions in both compounds have also been calculated.
