In the title complex, (C22H24P)[Ni(C3S5)2] or (BuPh3P)[Ni(dmit)2] (where BuPh3P is the butyl­triphenyl­phospho­nium cation and dmit is the 2-thioxo-1,3-dithiole-4,5-dithiol­ate anion), each Ni atom is tetra­coordinated by four dmit S atoms, forming a nearly square-planar arrangement. The average Ni-S bond length is 2.16Å, much smaller than 2.21Å for the Ni2+ ion in [Ni(dmit)2]2-. The other bond distances are also shorter, close to the corresponding double-bond value. The [Ni(dmit)2]- anions and butyl­triphenyl­phospho­nium counter-cations form a layered arrangement in the crystal structure.

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

Refinement. All H atoms placed in geometrically calculated positions and refined using a riding model with C—H = 0.96%A (for CH2 groups), 0.97%A (for CH3 groups) and C—H = 0.93%A (for C6H5 groups), their isotropic displacement parameters were set to 1.2 times (1.5times for CH3 groups) the equivalent displacement parameter of their parent atoms.
