Bis(2,6-dimethyl-pyridinium) tetra-bromido-zincate(II).


ABSTRACT: In the crystal structure of the title compound, (C(7)H(10)N)(2)[ZnBr(4)], the coordination geometry of the anion is approximately tetra-hedral and a twofold rotation axis passes through the Zn atom. The Zn-Br bond lengths range from 2.400?(2) to 2.408?(3)?Å and the Br-Zn-Br angles range from 108.14?(6) to 115.15?(15)°. In the crystal structure, the [ZnBr(4)](2-) anion is connected to two cations through N-H?Br and H(2)C-H?Br hydrogen bonds, forming two-dimensional cation-anion-cation layers normal to the b axis. No significant Br?Br inter-actions [the shortest being 4.423?(4)?Å] are observed in the structure.
