Reaction of nickel(II) chloride with sodium cyanate and 2,6-dimethylpyrazine leads to single crystals of the title compound, [Ni(NCO)2(C6H8N2)4]. The nickel(II) cation is located about a centre of inversion and is octahedrally coordinated by two cyanate anions and four 2,6-dimethylpyrazine ligands, forming discrete complexes.
