Bis[N-benzyl-N-(2-phenylethyl)dithiocarbamato-κ2S,S′](1,10-phenanthroline-κ2N,N′)zinc(II)

Abstract

In the title compound, [Zn(C16H16NS2)2(C12H8N2)], the ZnII atom exists within an N2S4 donor set that defines a distorted octahedral geometry; weak intramolecular C—H...S hydrogen bonds are noted. In the crystal, molecules are linked via weak C—H...π interactions, forming C(11) chains propagating along [001].
