Dichloridobis{N,N-diethyl-4-[(pyridin-2-yl-κN)diazen-yl]aniline}zinc.

ABSTRACT: In the title complex, [ZnCl(2)(C(15)H(18)N(4))(2)], the Zn(II) cation is coordinated by two N atoms from the pyridine rings of two unidentate N,N-diethyl-4-[(pyridin-2-yl)diazen-yl]aniline ligands and two Cl atoms, resulting in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The ligands are mutually transoid with respect to the metal atom. Weak inter-molecular C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and π-π inter-actions, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.8452 (14) and 3.9932 (14) Å, are found in the crystal packing.
