(2,9-Dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline-N¹,N¹⁰)bis(O-ethyl dithiocarbonato-S,S')nickel(II)

The crystal structure of [Ni(C₂H₅OCS₂)₂(C₁₄H₁₂N₂)] cis- [Ni(EtXA)₂(2,9-dmphen)] (EtXA = ethyl xanthate, 2,9-dmphen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline), containing a distorted octahedral NiS₄N₂ core, is reported. The Ni-S bond lengths range from 2.376 (2) to 2.522 (2) Å and the Ni-N bond lengths are 2.107 (4) and 2.153 (3) Å, while the N(1)-Ni-N(2) chelate angle is 78.3 (1)°.
