[N,N′-bis(2-hydroxynaphthylmethylene)-1,2-ethanediaminato]zinc(II)

The title compound, [Zn(C24H18N2O2)], is a mononuclear zinc(II) complex. The crystal is isostructural with the previously studied Ni and Co analogues. The Zn atom has a slightly distorted square-planar coordination formed by two O and two N atoms of the tetradentate Schiff base ligand.
