Z.-L. You and S.-Y. Niu

Abstract: In the title controsymmetric mononuclear nickel(II) compound, [Ni(C₁₃H₁₉N₃O₃)₂(NCS)₂]·2H₂O, the Ni^II atom lies on an inversion centre and is six-coordinated by two phenolate O and two imine N atoms from two Schiff base ligands, and by two terminal N atoms from two thiocyanate anions, forming an octahedral coordination. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked through intermolecular O-HO, O-HN and N-HO hydrogen bonds, forming chains running along [101].
