title: Bis{2-methoxy-6-[(4-methyl-phen-yl)iminiometh-yl]-phenolato-κO}bis-(thio-cyanato-κN)zinc(II).
abstract: The Schiff base 2-[(4-methyl-phen-yl)imino-meth-yl]-6-methoxy-phenol (HL) forms a complex with a Zn(2+) atom and two independent thio-cyanate ions, [Zn(NCS)(2)(C(15)H(15)NO(2))(2)], in which two phenolate O atoms the two independent Schiff base ligands are coordinated to thee Zn(2+) atom. The protonated imine N atoms are involved in an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the phenoxide group. The Zn atom is also coordinated by two N atoms of two thio-cyanate ligands. The coordination environment of the Zn atom is distorted-tetra-hedral.
