A Chromium(III) 2,2'-Bipyrimidine (bipym) Complex, (Et₄N)[Cr(NCS)₄(bipym)]

The title structure, tetrethylammonium tetrakis(isothiocyanato)(2,2'-bipyrimidine-N,N')chromium(III), [(C₂H₅)₄N][Cr(NCS)₄(C₈H₆N₄)], consists of discrete [Cr(NCS)₄(bipym)]^- and [(C₂H₅)₄N]⁺ ions. The Cr³⁺ ion lies on a mirror plane and has regular octahedral coordination polyhedron. The bipym group is planar, with unexceptional bond distances and angles.
