Bis[2,4-dichloro-6-(ethyliminomethyl)phenolato-κ2N,O]nickel(II)
Abstract
In the title compound, [Ni(C9H8Cl2NO)2], the NiII ion lies on an inversion centre and is coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry by an N and an O atom from two symmetry-related bidentate 2,4-dichloro-6-(ethyliminomethyl)phenolate ligands. In the crystal structure, there are short Cl...Cl distances of 3.506 (1) and 3.350 (1) Å.
