title: trans-(1,8-Dibenzyl-1,3,6,8,10,13-hexa-azacyclo-tetra-deca-ne)diisonicotinatonickel(II).
abstract: In the centrosymmetric title compound, [Ni(C(6)H(4)NO(2))(2)(C(22)H(34)N(6))], the Ni(II) ion is bonded to the four secondary N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand in a square-planar fashion and two carboxyl-ate O atoms of the isonicotinate ions in axial positions, resulting in a tetra-gonally distorted octa-hedron. An offset face-to-face π-π stacking inter-action [centroid-centroid distance = 3.674(4) Å] and N-H⋯N and N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions give rise to a one-dimensional supra-molecular structure in the solid state.
