In the title complex, [Ni(C15H14NO)2], the NiII atom is located on an inversion centre and is coordinated by two O and two N atoms from two symmetry-related bidentate Schiff base ligands in a slightly distorted square-planar geometry. The phenyl and benzene rings in the ligand molecule form a dihedral angle of 72.79 (8)°.
