Crystal Structure and Hirshfeld Surface Analysis of (Succinato-κ O)[ N, N, N', N'-tetra-kis-(2-hy-droxy-eth-yl)ethyl-enedi-amine-κ5 O, N, N', O', O'']Nickel(II) tetra-hydrate

Abstract

In the title compound, [Ni(C<inf>10</inf>H<inf>24</inf>N<inf>2</inf>O<inf>4</inf>)(C<inf>4</inf>H<inf>4</inf>O<inf>4</inf>)]·4H<inf>2</inf>O, the NiII cation is octahedrally coordinated by one O atom of the succinate anion and three O atoms and two N atoms from an N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine molecule. In the crystal, molecules are linked by O - H⋯O and C - H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional supramolecular architecture. Hirshfeld surface analyses and two-dimensional fingerprint plots were used to analyse the intermolecular interactions present in the crystal, indicating that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (63.3%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (34.5%) interactions. © 2018 International Union of Crystallography.
