Abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, [Ni(C₁₅H₁₀Cl₂N₂O₂)(C₅H₅N)₃]·C₅H₅N, is built of molecules of a mononuclear nickel complex and uncoordinated solvent pyridine molecules. The Ni^II atom in the complex is coordinated by two O and one N atoms of the meridional tridentate ligand, viz. the twice deprotonated hydrazone formed from 2-hydroxy-5-chloroacetophenone and p-chlorobenzhydrazide. The remaining three coordination sites of the Ni octahedron are occupied by three coordinated pyridine ligands.
