[N,N′-Bis(2,6-diethyl-4-phenyl­phen­yl)butane-2,3-di­imine-κ2 N,N′]di­bromido­nickel(II)

The complex molecule in the title compound, [NiBr2(C36H40N2)], has mirror symmetry. The NiIIatom and two Br atoms are located on the mirror plane. The NiIIatom is four-coordinated by the two Br atoms and two N atoms from anN,N′-bis(2,6-diethyl-4-phenylphenyl)butane-2,3-diimine ligand in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The dihedral angle formed between the two adjacent benzene rings is 47.1 (1)°.
