All non-H atoms except for the Cl atoms lie on a mirror plane in the title complex, [ZnCl(2)(C(16)H(16)N(2)O(2))]. The Zn(II) ion is coordinated by two N atoms from a bis-chelating 2,9-dieth-oxy-1,10-phenanthroline ligand and two symmetry-related Cl atoms in a distorted tetra-hedral environment. The two Zn-N bond lengths are significantly different from each other and the N-Zn-N angle is acute. In the crystal structure, there are weak but significant π-π stacking inter-actions between phenanthro ...[more]
