In the title complex, [Ni2(C14H17NO4)2(C12H8N2)2]·4CH3OH·3H2O, the two NiII ions are bridged by two Schiff base anions, leading to a dinuclear complex. One NiII ion is six-coordinated by four O atoms and two N atoms of two tridentate Schiff base ligands derived from the condensation of L-isoleucine and o-vanillin. The other NiII ion is six-coordinated by four N atoms of two 1,10-phenanthroline ligands and two O atoms of the Schiff base ligands. In the crystal, intermolecular O-H
O and C-H
O hydrogen bonds lead to a three-dimensional structure. Intramolecular C-H
O hydrogen bonds are also present. One of the methyl groups of the L-isoleucinate moieties is disordered over two sets of sites with an occupancy ratio of 0.687 (19):0.313 (19) and two methanol molecules are half-occupied.
