The structure of the title compound, [Ni(C13H9FNO)2(C5H5N)2], consists of an NiII atom on a crystallographic center of symmetry, octahedrally bonded through both the N and O atoms to two 2-[(2-fluorophenyl)iminomethyl]phenolate (L) ligands, as well as two pyridine ligands. The F atoms of L are disordered over two positions related by a 180° rotation of the fluorophenyl group around its external C—N bond.
