Crystals of the title compound, [NiCl(C18H15P)2], contain one molecule per asymmetric unit with no short intermolecular interactions. This is noteworthy since previous studies have reported that the formally 15-electron species oligomerizes in the solid state. The nickel(I) centre has a distorted trigonal-planar coordination geometry, the origin of which is suggested to be electronic in nature.
