The synthesis and properties of the red dimeric nickel(11) complex [Ni2(C7H,N2)4], where C7H5N2-is the anion of 7-azaindole (1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine), are reported. The diamagnetism and electronic spectrum are consistent with a square-planar environment about each nickel atom. Adimeric molecular structure with four anionic 7-azaindole ligands bridging a pair of bonded nickel atoms is proposed.
