biostudies-literatureUnknown67(Pt 10)Lee JPThe homoleptic thio-ether title complex, [Ni(C(6)H(12)S(3))(2)](BF(4))(2)·2CH(3)NO(2), shows the expeced hexa-kis-(thio-ether) octa-hedral environment around the Ni(II) atom. It crystallized as two crystallographically independent complex cations, [Ni(9S3)(2)](2+) (9S3 = 1,4,7-trithia-cyclo-nona-ne), within the unit cell where each Ni(II) lies on an inversion center. In addition to the complex cations, there are two crystallographically independent BF(4) (-) anions present to balance the charge, and each shows disorder along a pseudo-C(3) axis with ratios of 0.53 (2):0.47 (2) and 0.55 (2):0.45 (2). Two nitro-methane solvent mol-ecules per complex cation are also present in the unit cell.Acta crystallographica.
