Abstract: The Ni atom in the title complex, (C₂₄H₂₀P)₂[Ni(C₉H₁₇NO₂S₃)₂], lies on a twofold axis within a square-planar geometry defined by four S atoms derived from two dithiocarbimate dianions, each forming a four-membered chelate ring. A small distortion, described by a deviation of the Ni^II atom by 0.083 (1) Å from the plane through the four S atoms, and also by the torsion angles about the Ni-S bonds, implies a folded conformation for the chelate ring.
