Graphical Abstract

A new nickel bis(dithiolene) complex has been synthesized based on quinoxaline-6,7-dithiolate. ► Its crystal structure has been characterized by C–H···S and C–H···N weak interactions. ► The title compound undergoes reversible oxidation at a very low oxidation potential.

The quinoxalinedithiolates have an internal base and this bis(dithiolene)Ni could be a good building block.
