A series of nickelacyclic carboxylates of the general formula [Ni(CH2CH2COO)(L2)] with p‐substituted pyridine ligands (2: L = 4‐picoline; 3: L = 4‐MeO2C‐C4H4N; 4: 4‐Me2N‐C4H4N) was synthesized and characterized by NMR spectroscopy. A correlation between the shift of the CH2 groups of the nickelacycle in the 1H NMR spectra and basicity of the used pyridine ligand was observed. Furthermore, amino‐substituted pyridine derivatives were used in ligand‐exchange reactions leading to supramolecular assemblies via H‐bond formation between the amino function and the carboxylate group. Depending on the ligand used, discrete dimers [5: L2 = (tBu)(Me)2Si‐aminomethylpyridine], chains [6: L2 = 2‐(aminomethyl)pyridine] or layers (7: L = 4‐H2N‐C4H4N) were observed. The molecular structures of all new compounds 2–7 were determined by X‐ray measurement.
