The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [ZnBr2(C14H20N2O)]·H2O, consists of a mononuclear Schiff base zinc(II) complex molecule and a solvent water molecule. The ZnII atom is four-coordinated in an approximately tetrahedral geometry, binding to the imine N and phenolate O atoms of the neutral zwitterionic Schiff base ligand and to two terminal Br- anions. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked through intermolecular O-H
Br and O-H
O hydrogen bonds, forming chains running along the b axis.
