In the title compound, {[NiCl2(C19H17N5O2)2]·4C3H7NO}n, the NiIIatom is located on an inversion centre and is in a six-coordinated octahedral geometry, formed by four pyridine N atoms from fourN2,N6-bis[(pyridin-3-yl)methyl]pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide (BPDA) ligands occupying the equatorial plane and two chloride anions at the axial sites. The bidentate bridging BPDA ligands link the NiIIatoms into a two-dimensional corrugated grid-like flexible layer with a (4,4)-connected topology, which consists of left- and right-handed helical chains sharing the common NiIIatoms. Investigation of the thermal stability shows that the network is stable up to 573 K. |
