Bis(3,5-dimethylpyridine-κN)bis(tri-tert-butoxysilanethiolato-κS)chromium(II) toluene solvate

In the title chromium silanethiolate, [Cr(C12H27O3SSi)2(C7H9N)2]·C7H8, the CrII atom is coordinated by two S and two N atoms in a distorted square-planar geometrical arrangement. The mononuclear molecule lies on a twofold axis that passes through the pyridine N atoms. The toluene solvent molecule is equally disordered about a twofold axis.
