2-Methyl-1-(4-nitrobenzyl)pyridinium bis(maleonitriledithiolato)nickelate(III).

ABSTRACT

In the title complex, 2-methyl-1-(4-nitrobenzyl)pyridinium bis(1,2-dicyanoethene-1,2-dithiolato)nickelate(III), (C(13)H(13)N(2)O(2))[Ni(C(4)N(2)S(2))(2)], the most prominent general structural feature of the complex is the completely segregated columnar stacks of anions and cations. Within the cation column, there may be stacking interactions between adjacent nitro groups and benzene rings.
