For details of other [Ni(mnt)2]2- complexes, see: Robertson & Cronin (2002); Ni et al. (2004, 2005); Liu & Ni (2006). For closely related [Ni(mnt)2]2- complexes with square-planar geometry and a substituted triphenylphosphinium counterion, see: Yang & Ni (2006); Zhou et al. (2007).
The title compound was prepared by the direct reaction of NiCl2.6H2O, Na2mnt and (mFBzTPP)Br in methanol. Red block-shaped single crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of a CH3CN solution at room temperature over two weeks.
All H-atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with d(C—H) = 0.93 Å, Uiso = 1.2Ueq(C) for aromatic and 0.97 Å, Uiso = 1.2Ueq(C) for CH2 atoms.
The unusual physical properties of complexes containing the Ni(mnt)22- anion are partly attributed to intermolecular interactions between Ni(mnt)22- anions and a variety of multifunctional cations (Robertson & Cronin, 2002; Ni et al., 2004). In recent years, we have introduced other substituted benzyltriphenylphosphinium cations into the Ni(mnt)22- system and obtained some Ni(mnt)22--based molecular solids (Ni et al., 2005; Yang & Ni, 2006; Liu & Ni, 2006; Zhou et al., 2007). As shown in Fig.1, the title compound is isostructural with (BzTPP)2+ [Ni(mnt)2]2- Zhou et al., 2007). The asymmetric unit of (I) consists of one [mFBzTPP]+ cation and one-half of a Ni(mnt)22- anion as the Ni atom lies on an inversion centre. The nickel(II) ion is coordinated by four S atoms from two mnt2- ligands and the Ni(mnt)22- anion is in a square planar configuration. The two N atoms of the CN groups deviate from the Ni1/S1/S2 plane by 0.392 (2) Å for N1 and 0.451 (2) Å for N2.
The [mFBzTPP]+ cation adopts a conformation where four phenyl rings are twisted with respect to the P1—C11—C10 plane with dihedral angles of 91.2 (2) for the C5/C6/C7/C8/C9/C10 ring, 81.7 (2)° for the C12/C13/C14/C15/C16/C17 ring, 20.6 (2)° for the C18/C19/C20/C21/C22/C23 ring, and 86.9 (2)° for the C24/C25/C26/C27/C28/C29 ring. The deviation of the F atom from the C5/C6/C7/C8/C9/C10 phenyl ring plane is -0.041 (2) Å.
The crystal structure is stabilized by a C9—H9···N1 hydrogen bond, Table 1, and a C13—H13···π interaction with the C24i···C29i ring [symmetry code: (i) 1 - x, -y, 1 - z]. The distance between C13 and the centroid of the C24i···C29i ring is 3.705 (2) Å, Fig 2.

The unusual physical properties of complexes containing the Ni(mnt)22- anion are partly attributed to intermolecular interactions between Ni(mnt)22- anions and a variety of multifunctional cations (Robertson & Cronin, 2002; Ni et al., 2004). In recent years, we have introduced other substituted benzyltriphenylphosphinium cations into the Ni(mnt)22- system and obtained some Ni(mnt)22--based molecular solids (Ni et al., 2005; Yang & Ni, 2006; Liu & Ni, 2006; Zhou et al., 2007). As shown in Fig.1, the title compound is isostructural with (BzTPP)2+ [Ni(mnt)2]2- Zhou et al., 2007). The asymmetric unit of (I) consists of one [mFBzTPP]+ cation and one-half of a Ni(mnt)22- anion as the Ni atom lies on an inversion centre. The nickel(II) ion is coordinated by four S atoms from two mnt2- ligands and the Ni(mnt)22- anion is in a square planar configuration. The two N atoms of the CN groups deviate from the Ni1/S1/S2 plane by 0.392 (2) Å for N1 and 0.451 (2) Å for N2.
The [mFBzTPP]+ cation adopts a conformation where four phenyl rings are twisted with respect to the P1—C11—C10 plane with dihedral angles of 91.2 (2) for the C5/C6/C7/C8/C9/C10 ring, 81.7 (2)° for the C12/C13/C14/C15/C16/C17 ring, 20.6 (2)° for the C18/C19/C20/C21/C22/C23 ring, and 86.9 (2)° for the C24/C25/C26/C27/C28/C29 ring. The deviation of the F atom from the C5/C6/C7/C8/C9/C10 phenyl ring plane is -0.041 (2) Å.
The crystal structure is stabilized by a C9—H9···N1 hydrogen bond, Table 1, and a C13—H13···π interaction with the C24i···C29i ring [symmetry code: (i) 1 - x, -y, 1 - z]. The distance between C13 and the centroid of the C24i···C29i ring is 3.705 (2) Å, Fig 2.
