Abstract: The Ni atom in the linear polymeric title complex, {[Ni(C₁₁H₁₇OS₂)₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)]·2CHCl₃}_n or {Ni[S₂C(-)-OC₁₀H₁₇)]₂(NC₅H₄C₅H₄N)·2CHCl₃}_n, is octahedrally coordinated within a trans-N₂S₄ donor set. There are two crystallographically independent polymers and two independent CHCl₃ molecules in the structure. For each polymer unit, the Ni atom and the axis of the 4,4'-bipyridine ligand are located on a twofold axis.
