Abstract: In the title compound, [ZnBr₂(N₂C₁₂H₁₂)]_n, the 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane ligand bridges Zn^II ions to form a one-dimensional chain. The distorted tetrahedral Zn coordination is completed by two bromide ions. The crystal packing is consolidated by both intra- and interchain C-HBr interactions.
