title: Crystal structure of di-bromido-tetra-kis(propan-2-ol-κO)nickel(II).
abstract: The asymmetric unit of the mononuclear title complex, [NiBr2(C3H8O)4], comprises a Ni(II) cation located on a centre of inversion, one Br(-) anion and two propan-2-ol ligands. The Ni(II) cation exhibits a distorted trans-Br2O4 environment. There are O-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds connecting neighbouring mol-ecules into rows along [100]. These rows are arranged in a distorted hexa-gonal packing and are held together by van der Waals forces only.
