The title compound, [Zn2Cl4(C12H14N4)2]·2C3H7NO, is located on a centre of inversion with one half of a complex molecule and one dimethylformamide solvent molecule in the The ZnII ion is tetrahedrally coordinated by two organic ligands and two chloride ions. Each organic ligand acts as a bidentate ligand, connecting two ZnII ions, resulting in a dimeric [2:2] metallamacrocyclic structure. Adjacent molecules are further linked by N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and the solvent is linked to the complex by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

To a solution of ZnCl2.2H2O (0.172 g, 1 mmol) in CH3OH (5 ml), an aqueous solution (5 ml) of bib (0.214 g, 1 mmol) was added. After the mixture was stirred for half an hour, white precipitate was filtrated, dried and collected. Then the white solids were completely dissolved into 2 ml DMF by heating. The DMF solution are placed into a glass test tube, and ether vapors were slowly diffused into the solution. After four weeks, colorless block crystals were obtained [yield 10% (8.5 mg) based on Zn(II)].
All H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with C—H = 0.95 and 0.99 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Uiso(C), and N —H = 0.88 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Uiso(N).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Recently, the photophysical properties of coordination compounds of d10 monovalent ions of the coinage metals have been of great interests. And metallomacrocyclic compounds are a rapidly growing field concerning due to their rich luminescent properties (Ren et al. 2004). Here, we present the syntheses and structural characterization of a dimeric [2:2] metallomacrocyclic compound [Zn2(bib)2Cl2].2DMF (bib = 1,3-bis(4,5-Dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-yl)benzene).
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Zn2(bib)2Cl2].2DMF, contains one Zn(II) cation, one bib ligand, two chloride ions and one DMF molecule. In the compound, the Zn(II) ion displays a tetrahedral geometry, being surrounded by two bib ligands and two chloride ions. Each bib acts as a bidentate ligand and every two bib ligands ligate a pair of Zn(II) ions resulting in a dimeric [2:2] metallomacrocyclic structure. Adjacent molecules are further linked by the N-H···Cl hyrogen bonds and the solvent is linked to the complex by N-H···O hydrogen bonds.
