Trans-Tetra-aqua-bis-[2-(4-chloro-phen-oxy)acetato-κO (1)]nickel(II).

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [Ni(C8H6ClO3)2(H2O)4], the Ni(II) ion is located on a crystallographic inversion centre and is octa-hedrally coordinated by two 2-(4-chloro-phen-oxy)acetate ligands in axial positions and by four water mol-ecules in the equatorial plane. The acetate ligands are bound to the Ni(II) ion in a monodentate manner through a carboxyl-ate O atom. In the crystal, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules, forming a two-dimensional supra-molecular network lying parallel to the ab plane.
