Dibromo{2-[3-(methylamino)propyliminomethyl]phenolato}zinc(II)

X.-Y. Qiu

Abstract: The title compound, [ZnBr₂(C₁₁H₁₆N₂O)], is a mononuclear Schiff base zinc(II) complex. The Zn^II atom is four-coordinated by one phenolate O and one imine N atom of the Schiff base ligand, and by two bromide anions, forming a tetrahedral coordination. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked through intermolecular N-HO and N-HBr hydrogen bonds, forming sheets parallel to the ab plane.
