Abstract

Low-temperature, single crystal X-ray structural characterisations of trans-[NiCl2(HOMe)4], trans-O-[Ni(MeOH)2(μ-Cl)(2/2)2](∞mid∞) · 0.5dioxan and trans-trans-[Ni(H2O)2Cl2(O-dioxan-O)(2/2)](∞mid∞) · dioxan are recorded, offering intriguing insights into O-donor/Ni(II) relativities. All nickel atoms in all structures are located on crystallographic inversion centres, the last two compounds being one-dimensional polymers.
