The surprising discovery has been made that the compounds of the formula I, either as single compounds or as mixtures, are good stabilisers for polymers against light induced degradation and good colour receptors for chelatable dyestuffs.
It was already known to stabilise polyolefines with simple nickel benzoates. Compared with these salts, the new nickel complexes surprisingly possess a substantially better thermostability. They can therefore be processed at greatly elevated temperature without the polyolefines becoming discoloured as they are by the previously known nickel benzoates. It is known further to stabilise polyolefines by thiobisphenol-nickel-alkanolamine complexes. Compared with these compounds, the new nickel complexes display evidence of a much better light stability.
According to definition, R.sup.1 to R.sup.12, R.sup.14 and R.sup.15 can be alkyl groups. Within the limits indicated under the formula I these groups can be methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec. butyl, tert. butyl, n-amyl, tert. amyl, n-hexyl, n-octyl, n-decyl, n-dodecyl n-tetradecyl, n-hexadecyl, or n-octadecyl.
Together with the nitrogen atom R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 can represent the radical of a heterocycle of the pyrrolidine series, e.g. pyrrolidine, 3-pyrrolidinol, of the piperidine series, e.g. piperidine, 2,6-dimethyl-piperidine, 4-hydroxy-piperidine, 4-methylpiperidine, of the piperazine series e.g. N-methyl-piperazine, piperazine, N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine, or of the morpholine series, e.g. morpholine, 2,5- and 3,5-dimethylmorpholine.
The compounds of the formula I protect polymers against degradation, preferably .alpha.-olefine polymers, e.g. polypropylene, optionally cross-linked polyethylene, polyisobutylene, polymethylbutene-1, polymethylpentene-1, polybutene-1, polyisoprene, polybutadiene; also polystyrene and copolymers thereof e.g. polyacrylonitrile-styrene copolymers or polyacrylonitrilebutadiene-styrene copolymers; copolymers of the monomers based on the cited homopolymers, e.g. ethylene-propylene copolymers propylene-butene-1 copolymers, and terpolymers of ethylene and propylene with a diene, e.g. hexadiene, dicyclopentadiene or ethylidene-norbornene; mixtures of the above cited homopolymers, for example mixtures of polypropylene and polyethylene, polypropylene and polybutene-1, polypropylene and polyisobutylene. Preferred are polypropylene and its mixtures and the copolymers which contain the propylene units.
The compounds of the formula I are incorporated into the substrates in a concentration of 0.01 to 5% by weight, based on the material to be stabilised. Preferably 0.05 to 1.5, but more preferably still 0.1 to 0.8% by weight of the compounds, based on the material to be stabilised, is incorporated into it.
The incorporation can be effected after the polymerisation by blending at least one of the compounds of the formula I and optionally further additives into the melt by methods conventionally used in the art, either before or during the moulding, or also by applying the dissolved or dispersed compounds to the polymer, optionally with subsequent evaporation of the solvent.
The compounds of the formula I can also be incorporated into the polymer to be stabilised in the form of a master batch which contains the nickel stabiliser e.g. in a concentration of 2.5 to 25% by weight.
In the case of cross-linked polyethylene, the compounds are added before the cross-linking.

The compounds according to the invention of the formula I ##STR17## can be manufactured by various methods. For example, it is possible to dissolve 1 mole of the compound II ##STR18## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, and R.sup.3 have the meanings given under the formula I, in an organic solvent, and with the application of heat to react the solution with ligands L, whose nature and composition are derived from the meaning given under the formula I, to give the compound I.
Suitable solvents for this reaction are chiefly alcohols, in particular methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, dioxan, tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, and mixtures of these solvents.
A further possibility of obtaining compound I consists in refluxing compound II with ligands L in an organic solvent for a lengthy period of time over a steam trap.
For this process there are used accordingly solvents with the aid of which it is possible to distill off water azeotropically, for example benzene, toluene, xylene etc.
An end product with a specific amount of water bonded as a complex, i.e. with a specific value for n in formula I, is obtained by the first process by using a compound of the formula II with corresponding water content.
In both these above cited processes it is also possible to obtain a compound of the formula I with a specific amount of water bonded as a complex, so that at the termination of the reaction the isolated complex is dried until the analytical data indicate the correct composition. If required, any water which is lacking can be added before the isolation of the complex.
The manufacture of compounds of the formula II is described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,189,690.

Example 4
1000 parts of polypropylene powder [melt index 1.5 g/10 minutes (230.degree. C., 2160 g)] are mixed in a drum mixer with 1 part of of .beta.-(3,5-di-tert.-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid octadecyl ester and 5 parts of a UV rays absorbing agent of the following Table and subsequently granulated at a temperature of 200.degree. C. in a Ko-kneader. The resulting granules are processed in the customary manner over an extruder with slot die to a sheet which is cut into ribbons which are subsequently stretched at elevated temperature in the stretch ratio 1:6 and wound up (titre of the ribbons: 700-900 den; ultimate tensile strength: 5.5-6.5 g/den).
The polypropylene ribbons are applied without tension to test carriers and exposed in a xenotest device 150. Five test specimens are taken after different times and their ultimate tensile strength is determined. The exposure time after which the ultimate tensile strength of the ribbons has declined to 50% of the starting value is taken as the criterion for the protective action of the individual UV rays absorbing agents. The values obtained are listed in the following Table:
