The structure of the bis[bis(p-methoxyphenyl)glyoximato]nickel(II) complex was determined by X-ray crystallography. The symmetry operation (–x+1, –y, –z+0.5) generates the whole molecule. The compound crystallizes in a monoclinic system, which was characterized as follows: C2/c, a = 17.6548(12), b = 19.0788(13), c = 9.2011(9)Å, β = 103.547(2)°, Z = 4, V = 3013.0(4)Å3. The crystal structure was solved using a dual-space algorithm and refined by a full-matrix least-squares method on F2 to final values of R1 = 0.0683 and wR2 = 0.1454. The para-methoxy group substitution brings about a molecular cuboid stemming from Ni(II)···π contact and moderate hydrogen bonding, instead of Ni–Ni interactions.
