[4-Bromo-2-(pyridin-2-ylmethyliminomethyl)phenolato]methanolperchloratozinc(II)

Y.-J. Wei

Abstract: In the title mononuclear zinc(II) compound, [Zn(C₁₃H₁₀BrN₂O)(ClO₄)(CH₄O)], the Zn^II ion is in a square-pyramidal geometry, and is coordinated in the basal plane by an O atom and two N atoms from a Schiff base ligand and an O atom from the coordinated MeOH molecule. The apical position is occupied by an O atom from a perchlorate anion. In the crystal structure, the molecules form hydrogen-bonded dimers via the methanol hydroxy group and the phenolate O atom of a symmetry-related molecule. They are further linked by C-HO interactions, via the perchlorate O atoms, forming a network structure.
