Abstract: In the title compound, [Ni(NCS)₂(C₁₀H₁₄N₄)₂]_n, the Ni^II ion (site symmetry $\\overline{1}$ ) is coordinated by six N atoms from four different 1,1'-butane-1,4-diyldiimidazole ligands and two SCN^- anions, in a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. Adjacent Ni^II ions are linked by pairs of 1,1'-butane-1,4-diyldiimidazole molecules, resulting in a one-dimensional polymeric structure with a double-strand chain.
