%X The crystal and molecular structure of two novel nickel complexes stabilized by pentathionate counterions, namely acetato(O,O&#8242;)diaqua biquinoline(N,N&#8242;)nickel(II) hemipentathionate dihydrate (1) and diterpyridine (N,N&#8242;,N&Prime;)-nickel(II) pentathionate tetrahydrate (2), are presented. Compound (1) is monoclinic, C2/c, a 21.5628(4), b 11.3354(2), c 20.2873(4) &#197;, &#946; 92.433(1)&#x02DA;, V 4954.2(2) &#197;3, Z 8, conventional R (on F) being 0.042 for 3444 No observed reflections (I &#62; 2&#963;(I)). Compound (2) is triclinic, P1&#8211;, a 12.461(1), b 12.781(1), c 23.542(2) &#197;, &#945; 80.246(5), &#946; 79.714(5), &#947; 88.680(6)&#x02DA;, V 3635.9(6) &#197;3, Z 4, R 0.062, No 6255. In both compounds the pentathionate anions act as counterions of the octahedral complex cations and have been formed in situ through reactions involving the thiosulfate group present in the synthesis process.
