Crystal Structure of Bis(N-ethyl-N-phenyldithiocarbamato-κ2S,S′)-(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline-κ1N)zinc(II)

Abstract

The title material was synthesised by the treatment of [Zn{S2CN(Et)(Ph)}2]2 with excess 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline. The crystal system is triclinic (space group P1 and Z = 2). The unit-cell dimensions are a = 10.2310(4)A, b = 11.4701(5)A, c = 12.1981(5)A with α = 85.952(1)°, β = 75.174(1)°, γ = 72.442(1)° and V = 1319.30(9)A3. The final R value is 0.0248 (4641 observed reflections: I > 2σ(I)). The Zn atom coordinates with two chelating dithiocarbamato groups and one N-bound oxazoline.
