Bis[1-(4-chlorobenzyl)pyridinium] bis(1,2,5-thiadiazole-3,4-dithiolato)nickelate(II)

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the salt, (C12H11ClN)2[Ni(C2N2S3)2], comprises one cation and a half of Ni(tdas)2 (tdas = 1,2,5-thiadiazole-3,4-dithiolate) anion. The NiII atom is located at a centre of inversion. The NiII atom has a square-planar coordination with Ni—S distances of 2.2052 (4) and 2.1970 (5) Å. In crystal, weak C—H...S and C—H...Ni contacts are observed between the anions and cations.
