Abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, K[Ni(C₅H₇O₂)₃]·0.3H₂O, comprises a columnar array with KO interactions between the K⁺ ions and the O atoms on opposite faces of the NiO₆ octahedron of the complex anion. The columns are maintained, almost exclusively, by hydrophobic methyl-methyl interactions.
