catena-Poly[[bis(pyridine-κN)nickel(II)]-di-μ-thiocyanato-κ2N:S;κ2S:N]
In the title compound, [Ni(NCS)2(C5H5N)2]n, the Ni2+ cation is coordinated by four thiocyanate anions (μ-1,3) and two pyridine ligands within a slightly distorted octahedral configuration. The Ni—N bond lengths to the pyridine rings are 2.1189 (17) and 2.1241 (17) Å, whereas those to the thiocyanate...

| Summary: | In the title compound, [Ni(NCS)2(C5H5N)2]n, the Ni2+ cation is coordinated by four thiocyanate anions (μ-1,3) and two pyridine ligands within a slightly distorted octahedral configuration. The Ni—N bond lengths to the pyridine rings are 2.1189 (17) and 2.1241 (17) Å, whereas those to the thiocyanate anions are 2.0299 (18) and 2.0359 Å. The Ni—S bond lengths are 2.5357 (6) and 2.5568 (6) Å. The Ni2+ cations are linked by N:S-bridging thiocyanate ligands into chains extending along [010]. The Ni...Ni distance within the chains is 5.5820 (5) Å. The asymmetric unit contains two Ni2+ cations of which one is located on a centre of inversion, whereas the second is located on a general position. |
