Abstract
In the title compound, [NiCl(C10H7N3S)2(H2O)]NO3, the NiII ion is coordinated by four N atoms from two chelating 2-(1,3-thiazol-4-yl)-1H-benzimidazole ligands, one Cl atom and one water molecule in a distorted octahedral geometry. In the crystal, O—H⋯O, N—H⋯O and N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the complex cations and nitrate anions into a three-dimensional network. π–π interactions between the thiazole and imidazole rings and between the thiazole and benzene rings are observed [centroid–centroid distances = 3.592 (3) and 3.735 (3) Å].

As part of our studies of the synthesis and characterization of these compounds, we report here the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound (Fig. 1)
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
