Abstract
A coordination complex, [Zn(L)Cl2], consisting of ZnCl2 and Schiff base bidentate ligand (4-methoxyphenyl)pyridine-2ylmethyleneamine (L) was prepared and structurally characterized. The coordination compound has been characterized by infrared spectroscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the \(P\bar {1}\) triclinic space group with a = 7.973(2) Å, b = 9.354(3) Å, c = 10.134(3) Å, and α = 81.013(6)°, β = 81.662(6)°, and γ = 70.855(6)°. The Zn(II) atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination, in which the bidentate organic ligand is coordinated to the Zn(II) atom through two N atoms. In addition, the Zn(II) ion is located in a distorted tetrahedral environment, which is composed of the chelating ligand and two Cl ions.
