In either of the two independent molecules within the asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ni(C16H15NO3)(C3H4N2)], the NiII atom is coordinated by the two N atoms and two O atoms in a distorted square-planar geometry. The crystal packing is stabilized by strong and weak intermolecular C-H...O hydrogen bonds, as well as weak centroid-centroid [pi]-stacking interactions [centroid-centroid separation = 3.526 (3) Å].
