Dichlorido[(S)-(1-phenylethyl)(2-pyridylmethyl)amine-κ2N,N′]zinc(II)

Abstract

In the title compound, [ZnCl2(C14H16N2)], the ZnII atom is coordinated by two N atoms and two Cl atoms in an approximately tetrahedral arrangement. The dihedral angle between the N—Zn—N and Cl—Zn—Cl planes is 88.06 (8)°. The H atoms on the chiral C atom and the adjacent N atom have an anti conformation.
