title: (meso-5,5,7,12,12,14-Hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetra-aza-cyclo-tetra-deca-ne)nickel(II) bis-[O,O'-bis-(4-methyl-phen-yl) thio-phosphate].
abstract: In the centrosymmetric title complex, [Ni(C(16)H(36)N(4))](C(14)H(14)O(3)PS)(2), the Ni(II) ion is coordinated by four N atoms and two O atoms within a slightly distorted NiN(4)O(2) octa-hedral geometry. The asymmetric unit consits of one Ni(II) ion that is located on a center of inversion, half of the macrocylic ligand and one anion occupying general positions. Intra-molecular N-H⋯O and N-H⋯S hydrogen bonding is found between the macrocyclic ligand and the monothio-phosphate anion.
