Bis[N-2-hy-droxy-ethyl,N-methyl-dithio-carbamato-κ²S,S)'-4-{[(pyridin-4-yl-methyl-idene)hydrazinyl-idene}meth-yl]pyridine-κN¹)zinc(II): crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [Zn(C₄H₈NOS₂)₂(C₁₂H₁₀N₄)], the Zn^II atom exists within a NS₄ donor set defined by two chelating di-thio-carbamate ligands and a pyridyl-N atom derived from a terminally bound 4-pyridine-aldazine ligand. The distorted coordination geometry tends towards square-pyramidal with the pyridyl-N atom occupying the apical position. In the crystal, hydroxyl-O-H⋯O(hydrox-yl) and hydroxyl-O-H⋯N(pyrid-yl) hydrogen-bonding give rise to a supra-molecular double-chain along [1-10]; methyl-C-H⋯π(chelate ring) inter-actions help to consolidate the chain. The chains are connected into a three-dimensional architecture via pyridyl-C-H⋯O(hydrox-yl) inter-actions. In addition to the contacts mentioned above, the Hirshfeld surface analysis points to the significance of relatively weak π-π inter-actions between pyridyl rings [inter-centroid distance = 3.901 (3) Å].
