Abstract: In the title complex, (C₁₂H₁₁ClN)[Ni(C₄N₂S₂)₂], the most prominent structural feature is the completely segregated columnar stacks of anions and cations. The neighbouring anions within the anionic column are equally spaced, with a distance of 4.0917  (8)  Å between the Ni atoms. Hence, the Ni³⁺ ions form an uniformly spaced magnetic chain along the direction of the anionic stacking column.
