A new binuclear nickel(II)complex[Ni_2(C_7N_4H_5)_3(C_9H_9O_2)]_n has been hydrothermally synthesized with nickel sulfate, 3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole and 3,5-dimethylbenzoic acid (3,5-DMBA). It crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1with a = 11.5769(7), b = 12.3115(7), c = 12.6431(7)A, α = 81.4860(10)º, β = 64.2830(10)º, γ = 63.7130(10)º, V = 1453.45(15)A_3, Dc = 1.604 g/cm~3, Z = 2, F(000)= 720, the final GOOF = 1.048, R = 0.0285 and wR = 0.0628. The crystal structure shows that the whole molecule consists of two nickel ions...
