Abstract
In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Ni(NCS)2(C7H7NO)2(CH3OH)2], the Ni2+ cations are coordinated by two thiocyanate anions, two 3-acetylpyridine ligands and two methanol molecules within slightly distorted NiN4O2 octahedra. The asymmetric unit consists of one Ni2+ cation, which is located on a center of inversion, as well as one thiocyanate anion, one 3-acetylpyridine ligand and one methanol molecule in general positions. The discrete complexes are linked by two pairs of O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the hydroxy H atom and the acetyl O atom into chains along the b axis.
