Dichlorido(4'-phenyl-2,2':6',2''-ter-pyridyl)zinc.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, [ZnCl(2)(C(21)H(15)N(3))], was obtained from the reaction of ZnCl(2)·4H(2)O with 4'-phenyl-terpyridine (L) and disodium 2,6-dipicolinate. The Zn(2+) cation is ligated by the N atoms of the tridentate L ligand and two chloride anions, forming a ZnN(3)Cl(2) polyhedron with a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry. In the crystal, nonclassical C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds are observed.
