| Research Abstract |
The tetradecanuclear nickel(II) complex with Schiff base ligand containing an imidazole group was prepared. This complex is constructed by eight Ni(II) ions on the corners and six Ni(II) ions on the centers of the faces of the cube. Two kinds of Ni(II) ions are bridged by imidazolate group of the deprotonated ligand each other. This complex has a space inside the molecule. The nitrogen containing molecule, hexamethylenetetramine, can be encapsulated in the inner space of the complex. However, non-nitrogen containing molecule, adamantane, can not. The difference of these encapsulating behaviors revealed that this complex can encapsulate the molecule having the weak coordinating ability in its inner space.
