(2,2′-Bipyridine-κ2 N, N′)(nitrato-κ2 O, O′)bis(pyrrolidine-1-dithiocarboxylato-κ2 S, S′)bismuth(III).

The title compound, [Bi(C4H8NS2)2(NO3)(C10H8N2)], is monomeric, with the Bi atom chelated by the S atoms of two pyrrolidine-1-dithiocarboxylate ligands and the N atoms of a 2,2′-bipyridine ligand. A nitrate ligand completes the coordination, with the eight-coordinated Bi atom adopting a highly distorted capped pentagonal–bipyramidal geometry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
