Bis({1-[(1-iminoethyl)imino]ethyl}azanido-κ2N1,N5)nickel(II) methanol monosolvate

Abstract

The title compound, [Ni(C4H8N3)2]·CH3OH, contains two independent NiII atoms, each located on an inversion center and coordinated by four N atoms from two 1-[(1-iminoethyl)imino]ethyl}azanide ligands in a square-planar geometry. N—H...N, N—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds link the complex molecules and methanol solvent molecules into a corrugated layer parallel to (001).
