Bis{2-meth-oxy-6-[3-(methyl-amino)propyl-imino-meth-yl]phenolato}nickel(II) bis-(perchlorate).

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ni(C(12)H(18)N(2)O(2))(2)](ClO(4))(2), consists of one-half of a centrosymmetric mononuclear Schiff base nickel(II) complex cation and one perchlorate anion. The Ni(II) ion, lying on the inversion center, is coordinated by two N atoms and two O atoms from two Schiff base ligands, forming a square-planar geometry. The crystal packing is stabilized by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

{4-Bromo-2-[2-(isopropyl-amino)ethyl-imino-meth-yl]phenolato}thio-cyanato-copper(II).

In the title mononuclear Schiff base copper(II) complex, [Cu(C(12)H(16)BrN(2)O)(NCS)], the Cu(II) ion is coordinated by two N atoms and one O atom from a Schiff base ligand, and by one N atom from a thio-cyanate anion, giving a square-planar geometry. There are long-range inter-actions between the Cu atom and S [3.151 (5) Å] and Br [3.929 (5) Å] atoms above and below the square plane.
