Synthesis and crystal structure of a nickel(II) 2′-deoxy-6-thioguanosine nitrate complex

The reaction of Ni(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>·6H<sub>2</sub>O with the thio-modified nucleoside 2'-deoxy-6-thioguanosine (d-tG, C<sub>10</sub>H<sub>13</sub>N<sub>5</sub>O<sub>3</sub>S) in methanol in a 1:1.3 stoichiometric ratiodeposited the title compound, [Ni(d-tG)<sub>3</sub>](NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>·2H<sub>2</sub>O, as green crystals.Despite the &lt;1:3 Ni–ligand ratio used in the synthesis, the deoxy-thioguanosinebinds to form three N7,S6-coordinated five-membered chelate rings with individualNi<sup>II</sup> ions in mononuclear complexes rather than bridge metal centres intomore extended oligomeric or polymeric structures.
