Abstract: In the title compound, (C4H12N2)[ZnCl4], the Zn atom adopts a slightly distorted tetrahedral geometry. In the crystal, the dication and dianion interact by way of N-H
Cl and N-H(Cl,Cl) hydrogen bonds to result in a layered network propagating in (010). The hydrogen-bonding network is unbalanced, with three Cl atoms accepting two hydrogen bonds each and one Cl atom not accepting any hydrogen bonds: the latter shows the shortest Zn-Cl bond length. The crystal studied was found to be an inversion twin.
