In the title compound, (C(4)H(12)N(2))[ZnCl(4)], the Zn atom adopts a slightly distorted tetra-hedral geometry. In the crystal, the dication and dianion inter-act by way of N-H⋯Cl and N-H⋯(Cl,Cl) hydrogen bonds to result in a layered network propagating in (010). The hydrogen-bonding network is unbalanced, with three Cl atoms accepting two hydrogen bonds each and one Cl atom not accepting any hydrogen bonds: the latter shows the shortest Zn-Cl bond length. The crystal studied was found to be an inversion twin.
在标题化合物(C₄H₁₂N₂)[ZnCl₄]中,锌原子采取略微扭曲的四面体几何构型。在晶体中,二价阳离子和二价阴离子通过N—H⋯Cl和N—H⋯(Cl,Cl)氢键相互作用,形成在(010)方向扩展的层状网络。氢键网络不均衡,三个氯原子各自接受两个氢键,而一个氯原子不接受任何氢键:后者呈现出最短的Zn—Cl键长。研究的晶体被发现是一个倒反孪晶。
