Abstract

In the title salt, [Ni(C₅H₁₂N₂)₂(H₂O)₂]Cl₂, the asymmetric unit is comprised of half of the complex cation and a chloride ion with the Ni^II atom of the cation situated about a twofold rotation axis. The six-coordinate Ni^II atom of the cation is connected to four N atoms from two methyl-substituted ethyelenedi­amine ligands and two water mol­ecules in a slightly distorted octa­hedral environment. The five-membered chelate ring is in a slight envelope conformation. The crystal packing features O—H⋯Cl and N—H⋯Cl inter­molecular inter­actions with the Cl⁻ ion forming weak bifurcated hydrogen bonds with nearby water mol­ecules and N—H inter­actions, leading to a three-dimensional supra­molecular network structure.
