Bis{μ-1,3-bis[(benzimidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene-κ2N3:N3′}bis[dichloridozinc(II)] dimethylformamide disolvate
Abstract
In the title compound, [Zn2Cl4(C22H18N4)2]·2C3H7NO, the 1,3-bis[(benzimidazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene ligand bridges two ZnCl2 units, forming a centrosymmetric dinuclear molecule. The ZnII atom shows a distorted tetrahedral coordination within a Cl2N2 donor set.
