title: Bis(2-butyl-imino-methyl-5-methoxy-phenolato-κN,O)zinc(II).
abstract: In the centrosymmetric title compound, [Zn(C(12)H(16)NO(2))(2)], the Zn(II) centre is coordinated by two O,N-bidentate Schiff base ligands, resulting in a slightly distorted trans-ZnN(2)O(2) square-planar geometry for the metal ion. Two short intra-molecular C-H⋯O contacts occur in the mol-ecule.
