Abstract: The title complex, [Zn(C₁₀H₆NO₂)₂(CH₃OH)₂], is a neutral mononuclear complex containing a Zn^II ion in a six-coordinate environment. The Zn^II center, located on a crystallographic center of symmetry, displays a distorted octahedral geometry, with two 2-quinolinecarboxylate and two methanol ligands, all in trans configurations. The complex molecules are linked together by O-HO hydrogen bonds between methanol molecules and carboxylate groups to form a two-dimensional framework.
