In the title complex, [Ni(CH3COO)(C28H26N4)]ClO4, the NiII atom is coordinated by two imine N atoms and two pyridine N atoms of the N-[(E)-1-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)methylidene]-2-(2-[(E)-1-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)methylideneamino]phenethyl)aniline donor ligand and two O atoms of the acetate ion in a distorted octahedral coordination. The average Ni-N and Ni-O bond lengths are 2.131 (13) and 2.098 (11) Å, respectively. An intramolecular N-H
O interaction occurs. Relatively weak intermolecular C-H
O interactions between the ligands and the ClO4- ions result in a chain extending along the b axis.

). For comparison Ni-N bond distances, see: Martin et al. (1977
).
