Abstract

In the title compound, [Ni(C9H7N2O2)2(C2H5OH)2], the NiII ion is situated on an inversion center and is coordinated by two N and two O atoms from two 2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)acetate (L) ligands and by two O atoms from two ethanol ligands in a distorted octa­hedral geometry. In the L ligand, the acetate group deviates significantly from the benzimidazole plane, the C—C—C—O(coordinating) torsion angle being 34.2 (5)°. In the crystal, O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into a two-dimensional supra­molecular network parallel to the bc plane.

Highlights

  • In the title compound, [Ni(C9H7N2O2)2(C2H5OH)2], the Ni ion is situated on an inversion center and is coordinated by two N and two O atoms from two 2-(1H-benzimidazol-2yl)acetate (L) ligands and by two O atoms from two ethanol ligands in a distorted octahedral geometry

  • We report the synthesis and structure of the title compound, (I), obtained by the solvothermal reaction of NiCl2 and HL ligand

  • 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
