title: Dichlorido(6-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine-κN,N')zinc(II).
abstract: In the mol-ecule of the title compound, [ZnCl(2)(C(11)H(10)N(2))], the Zn(II) atom is four-coordinated in a distorted tetra-hedral configuration by two N atoms from the 6-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine ligand and by two Cl atoms. There are π-π contacts between the pyridine ring and the five-membered ring, and also between the pyridine rings, [centroid-centroid distances = 3.685 (3) and 3.757 (3) Å, respectively].
