Bis[1-(2,6-dimethylanilino)propane-1,2-dione dioximato]nickel(II)

Abstract

The structure of the title complex consists of isolated [Ni(C11H14N3O2) (2)] units. The Ni atom is coordinated by four oxime N atoms in distorted square-planar geometry and lies on an inversion centre. The structure is stabilized by strong intramolecular N-H center dot center dot center dot O and O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds and a possible N-H center dot center dot center dot pi intermolecular interaction.
