 note = {The structures of two diaquabis(N,N-dialkylethylenediamine)nickel(II) chlorides ([Ni(H2O)2(diamine)2]Cl2·nH2O) were determined by X-ray crystallographic studies, where diamine is N,N-dimethylethylenediamine(NN-dmen) or N,N-diethylethylenediamine (NN-deen). Both complexes are trans and crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21⁄n. The unit cell parameters of the NN-dmen complex, NiCl2C8N4O2H32, are a=7.531(1), b=13.092(1), c=9.591 Å, β=107.76(1)°, and Z=2, and those of the NN-deen complex, NiCl2C12N4O2H36, are a=9.154(1), b=8.692(1), c=12.395(2) Å, β=104.46(1)°, and Z=2. In trans-[Ni(H2O)2(NN-dmen)2]Cl2·2H2O and trans-[Ni(H2O)2(NN-deen)2]Cl2, the Ni–NMe2 and Ni–NEt2 bond distances (2.183 and 2.271 Å) are much longer than the Ni–NH2 distances (2.078 and 2.064 Å), forming tetragonally distorted octahedrons with four close in-plane neighbors(N2O2) and two remote axial ones(N2). It is apparent that this distortion originates from the steric requirement of N-substituted groups. Such a distortion significantly affects the electronic spectra of these complexes.},
