Abstract

In the title compound, [Ni(C5H5N)2(H2O)4](NO3)2, the NiII ion is coordinated by two N-bonded pyridine ligands and four water mol­ecules in an octa­hedral coordination mode. The asymmetric unit consists of one NiII ion located on an inversion center, as well as one pyridine ligand, one nitrate anion and two water mol­ecules in general positions. In the crystal structure, the discrete complex cations and nitrate anions are connected by O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
