Abstract
In the title compound, [Ni(NCS)(2)(CH(3)CN)(2)](n), the Ni(II) cation is coordinated by two N-bonded and two S-bonded thio-cyanate anions, as well as two acetonitrile mol-ecules in an octa-hedral NiN(4)S(2) coordination mode. The asymmetric unit comprises one nickel cation, two thio-cyanate anions and two actonitrile mol-ecules. In the crystal, the Ni(II) cations are connected by bridging thio-cyanate anions into a three-dimensional coordination network.
