J. Li, B. C. Noll and W. R. Scheidt

Abstract: The Zn atom in the molecule of the title compound, [ZnCl₂(C₅H₈N₂)₂], exhibits a distorted tetrahedral geometry and is coordinated by two Cl and two N atoms, with Zn-Cl distances of 2.2519 (2) and 2.2531 (2) Å, and Zn-N distances of 1.9998 (7) and 2.0087 (7) Å. The angles Cl-Zn-Cl and N-Zn-N are 114.742 (9) and 108.50 (3)°, respectively.
