Bis{4-methylbenzyl 2-[4-(propan-2-yl)benzyl-idene]hydrazine-carbodi-thio-ato-κ2N2,S}nickel(II): crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis.
The complete mol-ecule of the title hydrazine carbodi-thio-ate complex, [Ni(C19H21N2S2)2], is generated by the application of a centre of inversion. The NiIIatom isN,S-chelated by two hydrazinecarbodi-thio-ate ligands, which provide atrans-N2S2donor set that defines a distorted square-planar geometry. The conformation of the five-membered chelate ring is an envelope with the NiIIatom being the flap atom. In the crystal,p-tolyl-C-H⋯π(benzene-iPr),iPr-C-H⋯π(p-tol-yl) and π-π inter-actions [betweenp-tolyl rings with inter-centroid distance = 3.8051 (12) Å] help to consolidate the three-dimensional architecture. The analysis of the Hirshfeld surface confirms the importance of H-atom contacts in establishing the packing.
