Abstract

The title compound, (C(12)H(10)BrFN)[Ni(C(3)S(5))(2)], is an ion-pair complex consisting of N-(2-fluoro-4-bromo-benz-yl)pyridinium cations and [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) anions (dmit = 2-thioxo-1,3-dithiole-4,5-dithiol-ate). In the anion, the Ni(III) ion exhibits a square-planar coordination involving four S atoms from two dmit ligands. In the crystal structure, weak S⋯S [3.474 (3), 3.478 (3) and 3.547 (3) Å] and S⋯π [S⋯centroid distances = 3.360 (3), 3.378 (2), 3.537 (2) and 3.681 (3) Å] inter-actions and C-H⋯F hydrogen bonds lead to a three-dimensional supra-molecular network.
