Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, (C 12H 10N 3) 2[Ni(C 4N 2S 2) 2], consists of one 1-(4-cyano-benz-yl)pyrazinium cation and one half of an [Ni(mnt) 2] 2- dianion (mnt 2- is 1,2-dicyano-ethene-1,2-dithiol-ate). The Ni 2+ ion is located on an inversion center and is coordinated by four S atoms from two mnt 2- ligands, exhibiting a square-planar coordination geometry. The cation adopts a conformation where both the pyrazine ring and the benzene ring are twisted with respect to the C - C - N reference plane by 16.5 (2) and 69.8 (1)°, respectively.
