Abstract

In the crystal structure of the centrosymmetric binuclear title complex, [Ni(2)(C(12)H(8)N(2)O(2)S)(2)(CH(3)OH)(4)], there are inter-molecular O-H⋯O, O-H⋯N and O-H⋯S hydrogen bonds. These help to stabilize the structure and link the mol-ecules, forming a three-dimensional network structure. The Ni(2+) cation exists in a slightly distorted octahedral NiNO(5) coordination environment. The thio-phene rings are disordered over two equivalent conformations with occupancies of 0.881 (3) and 0.119 (3).
