Nickel bis(dimethylglyoximate) is the coordination complex with the formula Ni[ONC(CH₃)C(CH₃)NOH]₂. The compound is a bright red solid. It achieved prominence for its use in the qualitative analysis of nickel.[1]

Structure

Nickel(II) is square planar.[2] It is surrounded by two equivalents of the conjugate base (dmgH⁻) of dimethylglyoxime (dmgH₂). The pair of organic ligands are joined through hydrogen bonds to give a macrocyclic ligand. The complex is distinctively colored and insoluble leading to its use as a chelating agent in the gravimetric analysis of nickel.

The use of dimethylglyoxime as a reagent to detect nickel was reported by L. A. Chugaev in 1905.[3]
