Q.-Y. Zhu, Y.-J. Wei and F.-W. Wang

Abstract: The title compound, [ZnBr₂(C₁₂H₁₇ClN₂O)], is a mononuclear Schiff base zinc(II) complex. The Zn atom in the compound is four-coordinated by one imine N and one phenolate O atom of the Schiff base ligand and by two terminal Br anions, forming a tetrahedral geometry. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked through intermolecular N-HO hydrogen bonds, forming chains running along the c axis.
