In the title complex, [ZnI2(C13H12N2O)], the ZnII atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination. The organic ligand is bidentate, coordinating the ZnII atom via the two N atoms. The benzene and pyridine rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 11.67 (9)°. In the crystal, weak C—H⋯I and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed, in addition to π–π stacking interactions, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.72 (5) Å.

The title complex was prepared by the reaction of ZnI2 (31.9 mg, 0.1 mmol) and (4-methoxyphenyl)pyridin-2-ylmethyleneamine (21.2 mg, 0.1 mmol) in 15 ml of acetonitrile at room temperature. The solution was allowed to stand at room temperature and yellow crystals of the title compound suitable for X-ray analysis precipitated within few days.
H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.95–0.98 Å and included in the
with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(Cmethyl).In ongoing our research interest on synthesis and characterization of metal complexes containing bidentate Schiff base ligands (Dehghanpour et al. (2009)), here we report structure of the zinc complex of the Schiff base of (4-methoxyphenyl)pyridin-2-ylmethyleneamine. The title complex, (I), was prepared by the reaction of ZnI2 with the bidentate ligand (4-methoxyphenyl)pyridin-2-ylmethyleneamine.
The molecular structure of the title complex, and the atom numbering scheme are shown in Fig. 1. The metal centre has a tetrahedral coordination which shows signficant distortion, mainly due to the presence of the five-membered chelate ring. The endocyclic N1—Zn1—N2 angle is much narrower than the ideal tetrahedral angle of 109.5, whereas the opposite I1—Zn1—I2 angle is much wider than the ideal tetrahedral angle. The Zn—I and Zn—N bond dimensions compare well with the values found in other tetrahedral Schiff base adducts of Zinc iodode (Talei Bavil Olyai et al. (2008); Khalaj et al., (2008); Wriedt et al., (2008)). In the crystal, weak C—H···I and C—H···O hydrogen bonds are observed in addition to π–π stacking interactions with a centroid to centroid distance of 3.72 (5) Å for Cg1···Cg2i (where Cg1 and Cg2 are centroids of the N1—C1—C5 and C7—C12 rings; symmetry code: 1 - x, -y, 1 - z)fig. 2.

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. |

In ongoing our research interest on synthesis and characterization of metal complexes containing bidentate Schiff base ligands (Dehghanpour et al. (2009)), here we report structure of the zinc complex of the Schiff base of (4-methoxyphenyl)pyridin-2-ylmethyleneamine. The title complex, (I), was prepared by the reaction of ZnI2 with the bidentate ligand (4-methoxyphenyl)pyridin-2-ylmethyleneamine.
The molecular structure of the title complex, and the atom numbering scheme are shown in Fig. 1. The metal centre has a tetrahedral coordination which shows signficant distortion, mainly due to the presence of the five-membered chelate ring. The endocyclic N1—Zn1—N2 angle is much narrower than the ideal tetrahedral angle of 109.5, whereas the opposite I1—Zn1—I2 angle is much wider than the ideal tetrahedral angle. The Zn—I and Zn—N bond dimensions compare well with the values found in other tetrahedral Schiff base adducts of Zinc iodode (Talei Bavil Olyai et al. (2008); Khalaj et al., (2008); Wriedt et al., (2008)). In the crystal, weak C—H···I and C—H···O hydrogen bonds are observed in addition to π–π stacking interactions with a centroid to centroid distance of 3.72 (5) Å for Cg1···Cg2i (where Cg1 and Cg2 are centroids of the N1—C1—C5 and C7—C12 rings; symmetry code: 1 - x, -y, 1 - z)fig. 2.
