Two nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes with phenanthroline, [Ni(Phen)(H2O)3Br]Br (1) and [Co(Phen)2(H2O)2](Hba)2·2H2O (2), Phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and Hba = barbiturate anion, were synthesized and characterized by powder XRD, TGA and FT-IR. Their structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The Ni2+ ion is coordinated by two N atoms of Phen molecule, Br ion and three H2O molecules forming an octahedron. Uncoordinated and coordinated Br ions are connected with water molecules by OH⋯Br intermolecular hydrogen bonds with the formation of a 2D plane network which is extended into a 3D network by π−π stacking interactions. The [Co(Phen)2(H2O)2]2+ cation contains a six-coordinated cobalt atom chelated by two Phen ligands and two aqua ligands in the cis arrangement. NH⋯O, OH⋯O and CH⋯O intermolecular hydrogen bonds form a 3D net. NH⋯O hydrogen bonds form the infinite chains of Hba. In addition, coordinated Phen molecules and lattice water molecules are linked via CH⋯OW hydrogen bonds to form infinite zigzag chains. These different chains are connected by OWH⋯O hydrogen bonds. π−π interaction plays an important role in the stabilization of structures 12. FT-IR, TGA, the diffuse reflectance, and UV–Vis spectra were also used to characterize these compounds.
