Synthetic and structural aspects of a few binuclear nickel(II) complexes, having two bridging carboxylate groups and aqua groups are reported. Intramolecular O–H ··· O hydrogen bonding interactions between the bridging aqua group and the monodentate benzoate groups stabilises the bridging structures. Aqua‐bridged nickel(II) benzoate complex is stable irrespective of solvent system and also can include solvent molecules such as toluene and benzene. A mixed chloro, aqua and 4‐chloro‐benzoato‐bridged Ni II binuclear complex was synthesised and structurally characterised. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006)
