The molecular structure of the title compound, [ZnBr(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2)S(2))], contains a seven-membered chelate ring in which the zinc atom is coordinated by two bromide ions and by the two pyridyl N atoms of a single 2,2'-dipyridyldisulfide (dpds) ligand within a slightly distorted tetra-hedron. As is usual for this type of complex, the disulfide group does not participate in zinc coordination. The chelate complexes are connected via weak inter-molecular C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonding into chains, whic ...[more]
