Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (nitrato-κ<sup>2</sup> <i>O</i>,<i>O</i>′)(1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-κ<sup>4</sup> <i>N</i>)nickel(II) nitrate
The crystal structure of the title compound, [Ni(C<sub>8</sub>H<sub>20</sub>N<sub>4</sub>)(NO<sub>3</sub>)]NO<sub>3</sub>, at room temperature, has monoclinic (<i>P</i>2<sub>1</sub>/<i>n</i>) symmetry. The structure displays inter-molecular hydrogen bonding. The nickel displays a distorted bipyramidal geometry with the symmetric bidentate bonded nitrate occupying an equatorial site. The 1,4,7,10-tetra-aza-cyclo-dodecane (cyclen) backbone has the [4,8] configuration, with three nitro-gen-bound H atoms directed above the plane of the nitro-gen atoms towards the offset nickel atom with the fourth nitro-gen-bound hydrogen directed below from the plane of the nitro-gen atoms. The nitrate anion O atoms are seen to hydrogen bond to the H atoms bound to the N atoms of the ligand.
