Die Kristallstruktur von Bis(N,N-diethyl-N′ -benzoylselenoureato)nickel(II)

The Crystal Structure of Bis(N,N-diethyl-N′ -benzoylselenoureato)nickel(II) Ni(C₁₂H₁₅N₂OSe)₂ crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c. The cell parameters are a = 11.399(3), b = 16.016(4), c = 14.910(6) Å, β = 104.64(3)° and Z = 4. The structure was solved with Patterson and direct methods and was refined to a final R-value of 5.43%. Nickel is coordinated to two N,N-diethyl-N′ -benzoylselenourea molecules to form a bidentally coordinated chelate complex with cis arrangement of the donor atoms. Coordinaton around the nickel atom is planar while the chelate rings diverge from planarity. The ethyl groups of one diethylamino group are disordered. The Ni? Se bond lengths are 2.244(1) and 2.264(1) Å, the Ni? O bond lengths are 1.871(4) and 1.883(4) Å, respectively.
