abstract = {The pentanuclear nickel(II) complex [Ni5(saltagBr)2(tptz)4] (Ni5) with the tritopic triaminoguanidine-derived Schiff-base ligand H5saltagBr (1,2,3-tris[(5-bromosalicylidene)amino]guanidine) and tptz (2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine) as capping ligands is reported. Ni5 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with the central nickel(II) ion linking two triangular arrangements of nickel(II) ions supported by two tritopic triaminoguanidine ligands. The octahedral coordination of the four peripheral nickel(II) ions is complemented by capping tridentate tptz ligands. By variation of the synthesis also the corresponding trinuclear nickel(II) complex [Ni3(saltagBr)(tptz)3]NO3 (Ni3) is accessible. Magnetic measurements for Ni3 and Ni5 reveal a singlet ground state with antiferromagnetic coupling between the nickel(II) ions, which in the case of Ni5 can only be simulated assuming a two-J exchange coupled spin topology. For both complexes significant zero-field splitting for the nickel(II) ions is evident from the measured magnetic data, which can be verified by theoretical studies revealing a magnetic anisotropy with strong rhombic distortion due to the presence of the tptz co-ligands in both compounds.},
