Abstract:
In the title compound, [ZnCl2(C6H8N2O2S)2], the Zn(II) ion lies on a twofold rotation axis and has a slightly distorted tetra-hedral coordination geometry, involving two Cl atoms and two N atoms from the amino groups attached directly to the benzene rings [Zn-Cl = 2.2288 (16) Å and Zn-N = 2.060 (5) Å]. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 67.1 (3)°. The crystal packing can be describe as layers in a zigzag arrangement parallel to (001). The amine H atoms act as donor atoms and participate in inter-molecular N-H⋯O and N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.
