title: Bis[benzyl N'-(3-phenyl-prop-2-enyl-idene)hydrazinecarbodithio-ato-κN',S]zinc(II).
abstract: In the title Zn(II) complex, [Zn(C(17)H(15)N(2)S(2))(2)], the Zn(II) atom lies on a twofold rotation axis. It exists in a tetra-hedral geometry, chelated by two deprotonated Schiff base ligands. The dihedral angle between each ligand is 71.48 (8)°. Mol-ecules are connected by weak C-H⋯S inter-molecular inter-actions into chains along the c axis. The crystal structure is further stabilized by C-H⋯π inter-actions involving the phenyl ring of the 3-phenyl-prop-2-enyl-idene unit.
