title: Diiodido{4-nitro-2-[2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethyl-imino-meth-yl]phenolato}zinc(II).
abstract: In the title complex, [ZnI(2)(C(14)H(19)N(3)O(3))], the Zn(II) atom is four-coordinated by the imine N and phenolate O atoms of the Schiff base ligand, and by two iodide ions in a distorted tetra-hedral coordination. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked through inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming dimers.
