Abstract: The title complex, [Ni(C₉H₉O₂S)₂(C₈H₈N₂)(H₂O)₂]_n, contains 4,4'-bipyridine ligands linking six-coordinate Ni^II ions. Each Ni^II ion is in an octahedral environment, coordinated by two aqua ligands, two (4-tolylsulfanyl)acetate ligands and two bridging 4,4'-bipyridine ligands, generating linear chains; - interactions between adjacent chains result in a layered structure. A twofold rotation axis runs through the Ni atom and along the bridging ligand.
