Dichloro{2-[2-(ethylamino)ethyliminomethyl]phenolato}zinc(II)

S.-J. Peng, C.-S. Zhou and T. Yang

Abstract: In the title mononuclear zinc(II) complex, [ZnCl₂(C₁₁H₁₆N₂O)], the Zn^II atom is coordinated by the imine N and phenolate O atoms of the Schiff base ligand and two chloride anions to give a four-coordinate tetrahedral geometry. In the crystal structure, the molecules are linked through intermolecular N-HO, N-HCl and C-HCl hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the ab plane.
