In the title complex, [Ni(C16H15N3O2S)(C18H15P)], the NiII atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry, comprised of N, S, O and P atoms of the tridentate thiosemicarbazide ligand and the P atom of the triphenylphosphane ligand. The benzene ring makes a dihedral angle of 53.08 (11)° with the phenyl ring of the phenylthiosemicarbazide moiety and dihedral angles of 73.69 (11), 20.38 (11) and 71.30 (11)° with the phenyl rings of triphenylphosphane ligand. A pair of N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds generates an R

2(8) ring graph-set motif. The ethoxy group is disordered over two positions, with site occupancies of 0.631 (9) and 0.369 (9). The molecular structure is stabilized by a weak intramolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal, weak N—H⋯N and C—H⋯π interactions connect the molecules, forming a three-dimensional network.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
