Catena-Poly[[[bis-[aqua-nickel(II)]bis-(μ-pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyl-ato N-oxide)]-μ-1,2-di-4-pyridylethane] tetra-hydrate].

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, {[Ni(2)(C(7)H(3)NO(5))(2)(C(12)H(12)N(2))(H(2)O)(2)]·4H(2)O}(n), two Ni(II) ions, two tridentate pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyl-ate N-oxide ligands and two coordinated water mol-ecules form centrosymmetric dinuclear units, which are further bridged by centrosymmetric 1,2-di-4-pyridylethane ligands into polymeric chains along [210]. Each Ni(II) ion has a distorted square-pyramidal environment, with the basal plane formed by three O [Ni-O = 1.9290 (16)-1.9588 (10) Å] and one N [Ni-N = 1.9828 (18) Å] atoms and the apical position occupied by the water mol-ecule [Ni-O = 2.2643 (11) Å]. The water mol-ecules are involved in the formation of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
