{2,2′-[(2,2-Dimethylpropane-1,3-diyldinitrilo)bis(phenylmethylidyne)]diphenolato}nickel(II)

The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Ni(C31H28N2O2)], comprises two crystallographically independent molecules. The geometry around the NiII atom in each molecule is distorted square planar. The dihedral angles between the two phenoxy rings in each molecule are 17.8 (4) and 36.5 (4)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.758 (5) Å] and C—H...π interactions
