The synthesis of the title compound, [Zn(C<sub>4</sub>H<sub>6</sub>N<sub>2</sub>)<sub>6</sub>](NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>, is described. This complex consists of a central zinc metal ion surrounded by six 1-methyl-imidazole ligands, charge balanced by two nitrate anions. The complex crystallizes in the space group <i>P</i>. In the crystal, the nitrate ions are situated within the cavities created by the [Zn(<i>N</i>-Melm)<sub>6</sub>]<sup>2+</sup> cations, serving as counter-ions. The three oxygen atoms of the nitrate ion engage in weak C-H⋯O inter-actions. In addition to single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, the complex was characterized using elemental analysis, <sup>1</sup>H NMR, <sup>13</sup>C NMR, and FTIR spectroscopy.
