Description
Summary:In the title compound, [Ni(NCS)2(C6H10N2)4]·C6H10N2, the asymmetric unit comprises a NiII complex and a co-crystallised molecule of 3,4,5-trimethyl-1H-pyrazole (PzMe3). The NiII atom is coordinated by four PzMe3 molecules and two thiocyanate anions to define a trans N4S2 distorted octahedral geometry. A number of intramolecular N—H...N, N—H...S and C—H...N interactions contribute to the stability of the complex. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular N—H...S interactions, which link neighbouring molecules into chains along the a axis.
