The title compound, [Zn(2)Cl(4)(C(12)H(14)N(4))(2)]·2C(3)H(7)NO, is located on a centre of inversion with one half of a complex mol-ecule and one dimethyl-formamide solvent mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. The Zn(II) ion is tetra-hedrally coordinated by two organic ligands and two chloride ions. Each organic ligand acts as a bidentate ligand, connecting two Zn(II) ions, resulting in a dimeric [2:2] metallamacrocyclic structure. Adjacent mol-ecules are further linked by N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and ...[more]
