Tris(1H-benzimidazole-κN3)(pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylato-κ3O2,N,O6)nickel(II)

In the title complex, [Ni(C7H3NO4)(C7H6N2)3], the NiII ion is coordinated by two carboxylate O atoms and the N atom from a pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate ligand and by three N atoms from three benzimidazole ligands to form a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional network.
