The ZnII atom in the title complex, [ZnCl2(C4H6N2S2)2], is coordinated in a distorted tetra­hedral manner by two Cl atoms and two terminal N atoms of two dimethyl N-cyano­dithio­imino­carbonate ligands. In the crystal, the complex mol­ecules are connected through C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and Cl⋯S contacts, leading to a two-dimensional structure extending parallel to the ab plane.

1. Chemical context

Two N and two S atoms in dimethyl N-cyano­dithio­imino­carbonate (DMCDIC), which are expected to act as hard and soft donors, respectively, according to Pearson's concept, give an inter­esting coordination potential to this mol­ecule. However, only one structure of a metal complex with DMCDIC acting as a ligand has been reported (Kojić-Prodić et al., 1992[Kojić-Prodić, B., Kiralj, R., Zlata, R. & Šunjić, V. (1992). Vestn. Slov. Kem. Drus. (Bull. Slovenian Chem. Soc.), 39, 367-381.]). Very recently, we reported the crystal structure of [CoCl2(DMCDIC)2] (Diop et al., 2016[Diop, M. B., Diop, L. & Oliver, A. G. (2016). Acta Cryst. E72, 66-68.]). Because of the scarcity of data on the coordination ability of DMCDIC, we have focused on studying the inter­actions between some transition metal halides and this ligand, which has yielded the title complex.

2. Structural commentary

The structure of the title compound (Fig. 1[link]) is isotypic with the Co complex reported recently (Diop et al., 2016[Diop, M. B., Diop, L. & Oliver, A. G. (2016). Acta Cryst. E72, 66-68.]). The ZnII atom is coordinated in a tetra­hedral fashion by two Cl atoms and the cyanide N atoms of two dimethyl N-cyano­dithio­imino­carbonate ligands. The Zn atom has a τ4 value of 0.94 (Yang et al., 2007[Yang, L., Powell, D. R. & Houser, R. P. (2007). Dalton Trans. pp. 955-964.]), indicating a near ideal tetra­hedral geometry (τ4 = 1 for ideal tetra­hedral and 0 for planar environments); τ4 = [360 - (α + β)]/141, where α and β are the two largest tetra­hedral angles.

3. Supra­molecular features

In the crystal, weak C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds (C3—H3B⋯Cl1ii and C7—H7B⋯Cl1ii; Table 1[link]) link the mol­ecules into inversion dimers (Fig. 2[link]). The dimers are connected through a C4—H4B⋯Cl2i hydrogen bond (Table 1[link]) and an S2⋯Cl2i short contact [3.3812 (7) Å], giving infinite chains along [[\overline{1}]10]. These chains are then connected through a longer hydrogen bond (C7—H7A⋯Cl2ii) and an S4⋯Cl2iv contact [3.3765 (7) Å; symmetry code: (iv) x, y, z + 1], leading to a layer parallel to the ab plane (Fig. 3[link]).

4. Synthesis and crystallization

All chemicals are purchased from Aldrich Company, Germany and used as received. Dimethyl cyano­carbonimidodi­thio­ate was mixed in aceto­nitrile with ZnCl2 in a 1:1 ratio. Colourless block-like single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained after a slow solvent evaporation at room temperature (303 K).

5. Refinement

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 2[link]. The structure was solved by incorporating the coordinates from the isotypic compound [Co((MeS)2CNCN)2Cl2] (Diop et al., 2016[Diop, M. B., Diop, L. & Oliver, A. G. (2016). Acta Cryst. E72, 66-68.]). Methyl H atoms were modeled as riding, with C—H = 0.98 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C), and were allowed to rotate to minimize their contribution to the electron density.

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.
