The reaction of 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline and zinc iodide in acetonitrile affords the title salt, (C10H10NO)[Zn(C10H8NO)I2], in which the ZnII ion is coordinated by a N,O-chelating 2-methylquinolin-8-olate ligand and two iodide ligands in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The cation is linked to the anion by an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond.

Zinc iodide (0.32 g, 0.75 mmol) and 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline (0.24 g, 1.5 mmol) were loaded into a convection tube and the tube was filled with acetonitrile and kept at 333 K. Yellow crystals were collected from the side arm after several days.
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions [C—H 0.95 to 0.98 Å, Uiso(H) 1.2 to 1.5Ueq(C)] and were included in the
in the riding model approximation. The N and O bound H atoms were similarly treated [N–H 0.88, O–H 0.84 Å; Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N) or 1.5Ueq(O) ]. The (-2 8 1), (-2 3 5), (-2 2 5), (-2 4 5) and (-2 5 5) reflections were removed.Data collection: CrysAlis PRO (Agilent, 2010); cell

We have synthesized methanol-solvated 8-hydroxy-2-methylquinolinium dihalo(2-methylquinolin-8-olato)zincates(II) by the direct reaction of the zinc halide and 8-hydroxy-2-methylquinolin in methanol. The salts have the ZnII atom in a tetrahedral geometry, and the ion-pairs are linked to the solvent molecules by hydrogen bonds (Najafi et al., 2010a; Najafi et al., 2010b; Sattarzadeh et al., 2009). These studies have been extended to the use of acetonitrile as a solvent. In a previous study, the reaction of zinc chloride/bromide and the quinoline in acetonitrile yielded the disolvated/monosolvated salts (Najafi et al., 2011a, 2011b). In the present study, using zinc iodide gave a solvent-free (Fig. 1) crystal structure. In (C10H10NO)[ZnI2(C10H8NO)], the metal in the anion is N,O-chelated by the deprotonated ligand and it exists in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The cation is linked to the anion by an O–H···O hydrogen bond (Table 1).
