Abstract

The structures of a series of four-coordinate nickel(II) complexes of the form [Ni(sacsac)L] PF6 (sacsac = pentane-2,4-di­thione anion; L = (Ph2P)2(CH2)n, n = 1,2,3) have beendetermined. These are [bis­(di­phenyl­phosphino)­methane](pentane-2,4-di­thionato-S,S′)­nickel(II) hexa­fluoro­phosphate, [Ni(C25H22P2)(C5H7S2)]PF6, [1,2-bis­(di­phenylphosphino)­ethane](pentane-2,4-di­thionato–S,S′)­nickel(II) hexa­fluoro­phosphate, [Ni(C26H24P2)(C5H7S2)]PF6, and [1,3-bis­(di­phenyl­phosphino)­propane](pentane-2,4-di­thionato-S,S′)­nickel(II) hexa­fluoro­phosphate, [Ni(C27H26P2)(C5H7S2)]PF6. All have a distorted square-planar arrangement about Ni with angles around Ni varying with the length of the hydro­carbon chain.
