N2  - The crystal structure of the acetone solvate of a mixed ligand  tetranuclear nickel(II) complex involving the pyridine-2-methoxide ( pym ) and 0-ethylxanthate (exa) anions has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. Crystals of [Ni (exa)( pym )]4.Me2CO are triclinic, space group P&#299; , a 13.825(2), b 15.606(3), c 12.288(2)&#506;, &#945; 101.16(2), &#946; 101.38(1), &#947; 85.80(1)&#176;, with Z 2; R and Rw were 0.056 and 0.057 respectively for 4,771 unique reflections for which I &#8805; 3&#963;(I). The structure consists of tetranuclear  cubane -like clusters with four nickel and four oxygen atoms arranged at alternate corners of a distorted cube. The discrete molecules of occluded acetone are located in cavities defined by the [Ni( exa )( pym )]4 units.
