title: Bis(μ-4-amino-3,5-dimethyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole)bis-[diiodidozinc(II)].
abstract: In the title compound, [Zn(2)I(4)(C(4)H(8)N(4))(2)], the Zn(II) atom is coordinated in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry by two N atoms from the triazole rings of two 4-amino-3,5-dimethyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole (admt) ligands and two iodide ligands. Doubly bridging admt ligands connect two Zn(II) atoms, forming a centrosymmetric dimer. Weak N-H⋯I and C-H⋯I hydrogen bonds play an important role in the inter-molecular packing.
