title: Dichlorido(2,6-dipyrazol-1-ylpyridine)zinc(II).
abstract: In the title complex, [ZnCl(2)(C(11)H(9)N(5))], the Zn(II) ion assumes a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal ZnN(3)Cl(2) coordination geometry [Zn-N = 2.1397 (16)-2.2117 (17) Å, Zn-Cl = 2.2470 (6) and 2.2564 (6) Å]. The crystal packing exhibits π-π stacking inter-actions between the 2,6-dipyrazol-1-ylpyridine ligands of neighbouring mol-ecules.
