Abstract: The centrosymmetric title complex, [Ni{S₂P(OC₂H₅)₂}₂], has been redetermined using area-detector data. The central Ni(S₂P)₂ core is essentially planar and confirms the early results of McConnell & Kastalsky [Acta Cryst. (1967), 22, 853-859] based on multiple film technique data. In the title structure, the standard uncertainty values are approximately seven times lower and all H-atom positions are calculated. A pair of short symmetry-related HH contacts with distances of 2.33 Å is observed in the crystal structure.
