Bis(10-meth-oxy-benzo[h]quinolinium) tetra-chloridozinc
Abstract:
In the title compound, (C(14)H(12)NO)(2)[ZnCl(4)], the benzo[h]quinolinium groups are approximately planar, with maximum deviations of 0.049 (8) and 0.056 (9) Å. The meth-oxy groups are stabilized by intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The structure also exhibits weak inter-molecular N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds between the cations and anions. π-π inter-actions are present between the pyridinium and benzene rings [centroid-centroid distances = 3.640 (4), 3.728 (5) and 3.628 (5) Å].
