Abstract: The title mononuclear Zn^II complex, [ZnCl₂(C₁₅H₁₃N₅)₂], is isotypic with the previously reported Hg^II complex. The Zn^II atom is located on a twofold rotation axis and has a distorted tetrahedral environment of two Cl atoms and two N atoms from two heterocyclic ligands. In the crystal, complex molecules are extended by intermolecular - interactions [centroid-centroid distance = 3.792 (2) Å] into a three-dimensional supramolecular network.
