(Acetato-κO)(acetato-κ²O,O′)[2-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl-κN²)quinoline-κN]zinc(II)

Abstract

The ZnII atom in the title compound, [Zn(C2H3O2)2(C14H13N3)], is coordinated by an N2O3 donor set defined by the quinolinyl- and pyrazolyl-N atoms of the chelating heterocyclic ligand, and three carboxyl­ate-O atoms derived from the monodentate and bidentate carboxyl­ate ligands. Distortions from the ideal square-pyramidal coordination geometry relate to the restricted bite angle of the chelating ligands, i.e. O—Zn—O = 59.65 (5) and N—Zn—N = 76.50 (6)°, and the close approach of the non-coordinating carbonyl atom [Zn⋯O = 2.858 (2) Å]. In the crystal, mol­ecules are consolidated into a three-dimensional architecture by C—H⋯O inter­actions
