Trans-Diaqua-bis-(dl-valinato-κN,O)nickel(II).

ABSTRACT: In the title complex, [Ni(C(5)H(9)NO(2))(2)(H(2)O)(2)], the Ni(II) atom, located on a centre of inversion, is trans-coordinated by two O atoms and two N atoms from d-bidentate valine and l-bidentate valine ligands and two water O atoms in an octa-hedral geometry. In the crystal, the discrete mononuclear units are linked into a three-dimensional network via O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. C-H⋯O inter-actions are also observed.
