Abstract

The complex HMEDA[Ni(dmit)2]2I (HMEDA = Hexamethylethylenediammonium) has been prepared. A single X-ray crystal structure analysis reveals that there are short S ⋯ S contacts between Ni(dmit)2 dimmers. The monoclinic system, space group p2/n, has cell dimensions: a = 11.710(3) Å, b = 22.559(5) Å, c = 7.374(2) Å, β = 93.000(3)0, V = 1945.3(8) Å3, z = 4. Full-matrix least-squares refinement, based on 2989 reflections converged at R = 0.0686. The conductivity of this salt at room temperature is 0.1 S cm-1 and it shows semiconducting behavior from 20 to 300 K. © 1998 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
