Synthesis, molecular and crystalline architectures, and magnetic properties of neutral nickel(II)dicyanamide coordination polymers containing a symmetrical/unsymmetrical 1,2-diamine as an end-capping ligand

Two neutral μ1,5 bridged coordination polymers of nickel(II)dicyanamides with 2D and 3D topologies have been isolated by varying the end-capping ligands from a symmetrical 1,2-diamine to an unsymmetrical one, and they have been characterized structurally and magneto-structurally.
