Dichlorido[N-(2-pyridylmethyl­idene)benzene-1,4-diamine]zinc(II)

In the title compound, [ZnCl2(C12H11N3)], the ZnII atom is four-coordinated by two N atoms from an N-(2-pyridylmethyl­ene)benzene-1,4-diamine ligand and two Cl atoms in a distorted tetra­hedral geometry. In the crystal, the complex mol­ecules are connected by N—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds into a two-dimensional layer structure parallel to (110).
