In the anion of the title compound, (C12H13N2)[Ni(C4N2S2)2], the NiII atom is coordinated by four S atoms from two 1,2-di­cyano­ethene-1,2-di­thiol­ate (mnt) ligands in a suqare-planar geometry. Weak C—H...N and C—H...S hydrogen bonds between the 1-ethyl-4,4′-bipyridin-1-ium cations and mnt anions and weak π–π inter­actions between the pyridine rings of the cations [centroid–centroid distances = 3.808 (3) and 3.972 (3) Å] lead to a two-dimensional network parallel to (010).

Comment top

Bis(1,2-dithiolene) complexes of transition metals as an important part of the molecular-based materials have been widely studied due to their novel applications in the areas of materials science, medicines and biology (Duan et al., 2010; Kato, 2004). It is known that weak inter- or intramolecular interactions in the complexes could influence on their properties. Herein we report the crystal structure of the title compound. The bond lengths and angles in the title compound (Fig. 1) are within normal ranges (Duan et al., 2011; Liu et al., 2011). Weak C—H···N and C—H···S hydrogen bonds between the 1-ethyl-4,4'-bipyridin-1-ium cations and 1,2-dicyanoethene-1,2-dithiolate anions and weak ππ interactions between the pyridine rings of the cations [centroid–centroid distances = 3.808 (3) and 3.972 (3) Å] lead to a two-dimensional network parallel to (010) (Fig. 2).

Experimental top

The title compound was prepared by a method similar to that reported in literature (Pei et al., 2010). Nickel chloride hexahydrate (238 mg, 1.00 mmol) and disodium maleonitriledithiolate (365 mg, 2.00 mmol) were mixed under stirring in water (50 ml) and heated to boiling for about 20 min. After filtering the red solution, an aequeous solution of 1-ethyl-4,4'-bipyridin-1-ium bromide (554 mg, 2.00 mmol) was added dropwise to the filtrate. The immediately formed dark red precipitate was filtered off, washed with water and dried in vacuum oven, giving the crude product (yield: 511 mg, 72%). Red block-like single crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of the crude in an acetonitrile solution at room temperature in about two weeks.

Refinement top

H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93 (CH), 0.97 (CH2) and 0.96 (CH3) Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2(1.5 for methyl)Ueq(C).

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2sigma(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
