Tris(ethylenediamine-κ2N,N′)nickel(II) bis(dimethyl phosphate)

Abstract

In the title compound, [Ni(C2H8N2)3][O2P(OCH3)2]2, the NiIIatom is six-coordinated in a distorted octahedral geometry by six N atoms from three ethylenediamine ligands. The P atoms of the anions adopt a distorted tetrahedral geometry. In the crystal, intermolecular N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds link the cations and anions into a three-dimensional network.
