Bis[2,6-bis­(1-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl-κN³)pyridine-κN]zinc dipicrate methanol disolvate

In the title compound, [Zn(C₂₁H₁₇N₅)₂](C₆H₂N₃O₇)₂·2CH₃OH, the Zn^II atom is coordinated by six N atoms from two tridentate 2,6-bis­(1-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine ligands in a distorted octa­hedral environment. In the crystal, the picrate anions and methanol solvent mol­ecules are connected by O—H...O hydrogen bonds. Weak inter­molecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds are also observed.

Benzene-1,3,5-tricarbonyl trichloride

In the title molecule, C₉H₃Cl₃O₃, there are three short interactions involving the benzene H atoms and the chloro­formyl Cl atoms. In the crystal, mol­ecules stack along the a axis with no significant non-bonded inter­actions.
