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.
