Abstract

In the title compound, [Ni(C14H9N3O6)(C6H7N)(3)], the coordination polyhedron around the Ni-11 atom is a slightly distorted octahedron, with one N atom of the tridentate ligand and three N atoms of three monodentate ligands forming the equatorial plane. The apical positions are occupied by the two phenolic O atoms of the tridentate ligand. The Ni-O distances are 2.013 (2) and 2.008(2)Angstrom, and the Ni-N distances range from 2.043(2) to 2.168(3) Angstrom. The cis bond angles at Ni-11 range from 82.75 (9) to 96.2 (1)degrees. There are intramolecular, as well as intermolecular, hydrogen bonds in the structure.
