Di-mu-chloro-bis({2-[(2-hydroxyethyl)iminomethyl]phenolato-kappa N-3,O,O '} nickel(II)) methanol solvate

<p>The title compound, [Ni2Cl2(C9H10NO2)(2)]center dot CH3OH, is a dinuclear unit built up by two nickel(II) complexes, bridged by two Cl atoms. The coordination geometry around each Ni-II atom can be considered as distorted square-pyramidal, with the tridendate chelate Schiff base ligands coordinating in a trans conformation through their imine N atom and phenoxy and alkoxy O atoms.</p>
