Abstract: The title compound, [Ni(C₂H₈N₂)₃]₂[Sn₂Se₆], was synthesized under solvothermal conditions in an ethylenediamine/water solution at 453 K. The compound contains discrete centrosymmetric [Sn₂Se₆]^4- anions, which are dimers of two tetrahedral SnSe₄ groups sharing a common edge. The transition metal cation is six-coordinated by three ethylenediamine molecules in an octahedral geometry.
