Synthesis and crystal structure of <i>catena</i>-poly[[di-bromido-zinc(II)]-μ-2,3-di-methyl-pyrazine-κ² <i>N</i> ¹:<i>N</i> ⁴].

ABSTRACT: The title compound, [ZnBr₂(C₆H₈N₂)₂] _n , was prepared by the reaction of zinc bromide with 2,3-di-methyl-pyrazine in aceto-nitrile and is isotypic to the corresponding compound with zinc chloride reported recently [Näther & Bhosekar (2025 ▸). Acta Cryst. E4, 813-820]. The asymmetric unit consists of one zinc cation, two crystallographically independent bromide anions and one 2,3-di-methyl-pyrazine ligand, all of which are located in general positions. In the crystal, the Zn cations are tetra-hedrally coordinated by two bromide anions and two 2,3-di-methyl-pyrazine ligands and are linked by bridging 2,3-di-methyl-pyrazine ligands into corrugated chains that proceed along the c-axis direction.
