Abstract: The structure of the neutral title complex, [{Fe[(SCH₂CH₂)₃N](CO)₂-S,S'}NiCl{[P(C₆H₅)₂]₂(CH₂)₃}]·CH₃CN or [FeNi(C₆H₁₂NS₃)Cl(C₂₇H₂₆P₂)(CO)₂]·C₂H₃N, is described. There are two independent complex molecules and two solvent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The Fe atoms are octahedrally coordinated; the three S atoms and a C atom of one of the two CO ligands form the equatorial plane, with the N atom of the (SCH₂CH₂)₃N ligand and the second carbonyl C atom lying in the axial positions. The Ni atoms are square pyramidally coordinated, with the two bridging S atoms and the P atoms of the 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane ligand forming the basal plane and the Cl atom lying in the apical position.
