Abstract

The title compound, [Ni(C6H15NO3)2](C8H4O4), consists of a [Ni(H3tea)2]2+ cation (H3tea is triethano­lamine) and a benzene-1,4-dicarboxyl­ate (terephthalate) anion. The NiII atom lies on an inversion centre and exhibits a slightly distorted octa­hedral coordination geometry formed by two mol­ecules of H3tea acting as N,O,O′-tridentate ligands; the anion is also centrosymmetric. All the OH groups of H3tea are involved in an O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding network with terephthalate O atoms, thus linking the mol­ecular units in chains and forming a two-dimensional infinite network.
