Abstract: In the title compound, [Zn(C₃H₇NO₂)₂Cl₂], both the alanine molecules in the asymmetric unit exist as zwitterions. Zn has a distorted tetrahedral coordination, with two Cl atoms and two O atoms, one from each of the two crystallographically independent alanine ligands in the asymmetric unit.
