(Received 14 October 2011; accepted 15 October 2011; online 22 October 2011)

In the title solvated complex, [NiCl₂(C₃₁H₂₇NP₂)]·CH₂Cl₂, the Ni²⁺ ion is coordinated by two chloride ions and two P atoms of the chelating N,N-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)benzyl ligand to generate a strongly distorted cis-NiCl₂P₂ square-planar geometry for the metal ion. In the crystal, the components are linked by C—H⋯Cl interactions.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F² against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F², conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F². The threshold expression of F² > σ(F²) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F² are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
