Perfect complementarity in the fitting of two homochiral heterodonor ligands around a nickel(II) centre: an ‘intramolecular embrace’

Abstract
The homochiral form of the complex [(‘P,N’)2Ni]2+ (‘P,N’ is a phosphino–heteroatom bidentate ligand) has been found to be more stable than its heterochiral analogue due to a ‘fitting’ of the two ‘P,N’ ligands about the Ni that is reminiscent of an ‘intramolecular embrace’.
