catena-Poly[nickel(II)-bis(μ-2-aminoethanesulfonato-κ3N,O:O′;κ3O:N,O′)]

Abstract

In the title polymeric complex, [Ni(C2H6NO3S)2]n, the NiII ion occupies a special position on an inversion centre and displays a slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometry, being linked to four sulfonate O atoms and to two N atoms of the taurine ligands. The sulfonate groups doubly bridge symmetry-related NiII centers, forming polymeric chains along the a axis.
