The structure of the title complex, [ZnCl2(C12H18N2O2)], contains a zwitterionic Schiff base ligand. The complex adopts a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry around the metal centre with the Schiff base ligand coordinated in a bidentate fashion via the imine N and phenolate O atoms. In the crystal, intermolecular N—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link the molecules into chains parallel to the c-glide planes.

To an aqueous solution (20 ml) of zinc(II) chloride (0.136 g, 1.00 mmol), a methanolic solution of the Schiff base 2-((2-(dimethylamino)ethylimino)methyl)-6-methoxyphenol (1.00 mmol) was added. The resulting mixture was kept at room temperature yielding brown block-like crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction after few days. Crystals were isolated by filtration and were dried in the air.
All the H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms, with Caryl—H = 0.93, Cmethyl—H = 0.96, Cmethylene—H = 0.97, and N—H = 0.91 Å, while Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for the methyl H atoms and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for all the other H atoms.

The Schiff base 2-((2-(dimethylamino)ethylimino)methyl)-6-methoxyphenol reacts with zinc(II) chloride in methanol to form the title complex. It adopts tetrahedron coordination geometry with the Schiff base ligand coordinated via the imine N and the phenolate O atoms. A formal proton transfer of the phenolic hydrogen to the amine N atom occurred leading to the formation of the neutral O/N-bidentate ligand bearing a pendant ammonium group.
Bidentate Schiff base Zn(II) complexes similar to the title complex were reported in the literature (Qiu, 2006; Wang & Qiu, 2006; Ye & You, 2008; You, 2005a, b; Zhu, 2008).
Classical intermolecular H-bonds of the type N—H···O and non-classical H-bonds of the type C—H···Cl exist (Table 1). These H-bonds link the complex into one-dimensional hydrogen bonded chains.
