Abstract

A new ion-pair complex, bis(1-benzyltriphenylphosphinium) bis(1,2,5-thiadiazole-3,4-dithiolato)nickelate(II), [BzTPP]2[Ni(tdas)2](1), has been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, UV, IR, MS spectrum, molar conductivity and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The title complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1, a = 9.098(1) Å, b = 9.666(1) Å, c = 29.573(3) Å, α = 83.81(1)°, β = 81.97(1)°, γ = 78.83(1)°, V = 2,517.5(4) Å3, Z = 2. The unit cell contains two [BzTPP]+ and two halves of [Ni(tdas)2]2− anions in which the anion exhibits a quasi-planar structure. The [BzTPP]+ cation adopts a conformation where four phenyl rings are twisted to the C–C–P reference plane. The weak cation–cation C–H···π, π···π interactions and anion–cation C–H···N hydrogen bonds between the anion and cation play an important role in the stacking and stabilizing of the title complex.
