Abstract

The title complex, [Ni(C(14)H(12)NO(2))(2)], lies about an inversion center. The Ni(II) atom is coordinated in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry by two O atoms and two N atoms from two 2-[imino-(phen-yl)meth-yl]-5-meth-oxy-phenolate ligands. The dihedral angle between the symmetry-unique phenyl and benzene rings is 73.2 (1)°.
