(μ-4,4'-Bipyridine-κN:N')bis-[bis-(N,N-dimethyl-dithio-carbamato-κS,S')zinc(II)].

ABSTRACT: The title dinuclear Zn(II) complex, [Zn(2)(C(3)H(6)NS(2))(4)(C(10)H(8)N(2))], is centrosymmetric; the mid-point of the C-C bond linking the two pyridine rings is located on an inversion center. The pyridine N atom coordinates to the Zn(II) cation, which is also chelated by two dimethyl-dithio-carbamate anions, giving a trigonal-bipyramidal ZnNS(4) geometry. Weak inter-molecular C-H⋯S hydrogen bonding is present in the crystal structure.
