Deskripsi

The title complex, {[Ni(C7H7N4O2)]OH}n, has been prepared through hydrothermal synthesis. The asymmetric unit contains one [Ni(TH)]+ cation (TH is the theophylline anion) and one hydroxide anion. The Ni2+ ion is coordinated by two N atoms from two neighboring theophylline anions. The alternating linkage of the Ni2+ cation and theophylline anion results in a one-dimensional chain along the [010] direction. Intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds are present n the crystal structure.
