Dichloro{2,4-dichloro-6-[2-(dimethylamino)-ethyliminomethyl]phenolato}zinc(II)

The title complex, [Zn(C11H14Cl2N2O)Cl-2], is a mononuclear zinc(II) compound. The Zn-II atom is four-coordinated in a tetrahedral configuration by one imine N and one phenolate O atoms of a Schiff base ligand, and by two Cl atoms. The molecules are linked through intermolecular N-(HCl)-Cl-..., C-(HO)-O-..., and C-(HCl)-Cl-... hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional framework.
