title: [(Z)-1-Amino-2-cyano-2-(4,6-di-2-pyridyl-pyrimidin-2-yl)ethenolato]chlorido(N,N-dimethyl-formamide-κO)zinc(II).
abstract: In the title complex, [Zn(C(17)H(11)N(6)O)Cl(C(3)H(7)NO)], the Zn(II) atom has a distorted square-pyramidal coordination formed by one Cl, two O and two N atoms. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link mol-ecules into centrosymmetric dimers, which are further assembled by π-π inter-actions [centroid-centroid distances = 3.809 (3) and 3.834 (3) Å] into layers parallel to the ab plane. The crystal packing exhibits also weak inter-molecular C-H⋯Cl inter-actions.
