Dichloridobis{1-[(2-methyl­benzimidazol-1-yl-κN³)meth­yl]benzotriazole}zinc

The title mononuclear Zn^II complex, [ZnCl₂(C₁₅H₁₃N₅)₂], is isotypic with the previously reported Hg^II complex. The Zn^II atom is located on a twofold rotation axis and has a distorted tetra­hedral environment of two Cl atoms and two N atoms from two heterocyclic ligands. In the crystal, complex mol­ecules are extended by inter­molecular π–π inter­actions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.792 (2) Å] into a three-dimensional supra­molecular network.
