Abstract:
The title complex, [Ni(2)(C(6)H(2)N(3)O(7))(2)(C(10)H(20)N(4)O(4))], contains a centrosymmetric binuclear unit in which the oxamide ligand (located on a centre of symmetry) acts in a bis--tetra-dentate fashion and the picrate anion binds to nickel(II) in a bidentate mode. The Ni(II) atom displays a distorted octa-hedral coordination with axial elongation. The binuclear mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯O, O-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a two-dimensonal supra-molecular network extending parallel to (100).

Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can be...
Metal-Ligand Bonds
In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...
