metal-organic compounds
In the title complex, [Ni(C9H7NO3)(C2H6O)]n, each Ni atom is octahedrally coordinated by four O atoms and one N atom from three fully deprotonated N-salicylideneglycinate (salgly) anions and by one O atom from an ethanol molecule. Two inversion-related Ni2+ ions are bridged by two O atoms from the phenolate groups of two salgly anions, forming a centrosymmetric dimeric unit which is further linked by carboxylate O atoms to give a two-dimensional network coordination polymer in the bc plane.
