Abstract: The structure of the title complex, [Ni₂(C₅H₇O₂)₄(H₂O)₂]·0.5H₂O, is dimeric and corresponds to the trimeric structure of bis(acetylacetonato)nickel(II) in which one Ni(acac)₂ unit is replaced by two water molecules. The centrosymmetric molecule comprises two O-O edge-shared octahedra. The asymmetric unit contains two half-molecules of the complex and one water molecule.
