Diaquadibromobis(1H-imidazole)nickel(II)

H. Zhang, L. Fang and R. Yuan

Abstract: The structure of the title compound, [NiBr₂(C₃H₄N₂)₂(H₂O)₂], consists of monomers with inversion symmetry. The three monodentate ligands (imidazole, bromine and aqua), together with their symmetry equivalents, define an almost perfect octahedral coordination. Hydrogen-bonding interactions via the NH group of imidazole, Br and aqua H atoms lead to a three-dimensional network.
