    Abstract:
    Two metal complexes [Ni(en)5'GMPH)2(H2O)2] (en).6.5H2O and [Ni(en)(5'IMPH)2(H2O)2].13H2O have been synthesized in the form of suitable crystals for x-ray crystallography (en = ethylenediamine, 5'GMP = guanosine 5'-monophosphate, 5'IMP = inosine 5'-monophosphate). The 5'GMP complex crystallizes in a monoclinic space group P21 (Z = 4) with a = 12.317(2), b = 28.417(4), c = 12.290(2)A, beta (deg) = 89.59(2). The 5'IMP complex is tetragonal, space group P4122 (Z = 4), with a = 12.119(3), b = 12.119(3), c = 28.560(4)A, beta (deg) = 90.0. The crystal structures of both complexes were refined from diffractometer data to conventional R values of 0.073 for the 5'GMP compound (5,284 observed reflections, 1,322 variables) and 0.030 for the 5'-IMP compound (1,529 observed reflections, 296 variables). In both structures, the Ni(II) is surrounded by two water molecules, one chelate ethylenediamine, and two nucleotide molecules. The synthesis was carried out from Ni(en)2Cl2.0.5H2O and the nucleotide in water medium. The dimer structure of the initial complex is broken, and one ethylenediamine is substituted by two molecules of the nucleotide with the N(7) of the purine ring in cis-position. Differences between both structures are largely due to retention in the structure or loss of the en molecule substituted and to the intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the en molecule coordinated. A third complex of composition [Ni(en)(5'IMPH)2(H2O)2] (en).6H2O similar to the 5'GMP complex has been obtained in the form of blue crystals, but unfortunately its crystal structure failed to be refined. This complex is isostructural with the monoclinic one.
