title: Bis{N'-[1-(2-pyrid-yl)ethyl-idene-κN]benzohydrazidato-κN',O}nickel(II).
abstract: In the title complex, [Ni(C(14)H(12)N(3)O)(2)], the Ni(II) atom lies at the centre of a distorted octahedron formed by two tridentate hydrazone ligands. Inter-molecular hydrogen bonds of the type C-H⋯X (X = N, O) link the complexes into a two-dimensional network.
