N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-13-propanediamine (LH2), N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-2,2′-dimemyl-1,3-propane-diamine (LDMH 2), N,N′-bis(2-hydroxyacetophenylidene)-1,3-propanediamine (LACH2), N,N′-bis(2-hydroxyacetophenone)-2,2′-dimethyl-1, 3-propanediamine (LACDMH2) and N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-1,2- ethylenediamine (SalenH2) were reduced in methanolic media with the help of NaBH4. Ni(II)-Sn(II) heteronuclear complexes were synthesized according to the template method in DMF media. The complex structures were analyzed using elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, thermogravimetry and X-ray diffraction. Appropriate crystals for one of the complexes 2 were obtained for X-ray diffraction. The Ni(II) ion has an octahedral coordination between the organic donors. The Sn(II) ion forms three membered coordination structure with phenolic oxygen atoms via μ-bridges. The Ni . . . Sn bridging distance is 3.1543(9) Å. © by Oldenbourg Wissenschaftsverlag.
