abstract: A donor-acceptor compound, diaqua-1kappaO,2kappaO-[&mgr;-11, 23-dimethyl-3,7,15,19-tetraazatricyclo[19.3.1.1(9,13)]hexacosa-1(25), 2,7,9,11,13(26),14,19,21,23-decaene-25,26-diolato-1kappa(4)N(3),N(7), O(25),O(26):2kappa(4)N(15),N(19),O(25),O(26)]dizinc(II) diperchlorate bis(8-methylquinoline) ethanol disolvate, [Zn(2)(C(24)H(26)N(4)O(2))(H(2)O)(2)](ClO(4))(2).2C(10)H(9)N. 2C(2)H(6)O, obtained by the reaction of a dinuclear zinc(II) complex of a Robson macrocycle (acceptor) and 8-methylquinoline (donor), lies about an inversion centre and the coordination about the unique Zn atom is a distorted square pyramid. The fifth coordination site is occupied by the water molecule, Zn-O = 2.016 (2) A, and the average macrocyclic Zn-O and Zn-N distances are 2.059 (6) and 2.059 (3) A, respectively.
