title: Chlorido(pyridine-2-carboximidamide-κN,N)zinc(II) chloride dihydrate.
abstract: In the title salt, [ZnCl(C(6)H(7)N(3))(2)]Cl·2H(2)O, the pyridine-2-carboximidamide ligands chelate to the Zn(II) atom, which is also coordinated by a Cl atom. The Zn(II) atom shows a trigonal-bipyramidal coordination, with the pyridyl N atoms occupying the axial positions. The cation, anion and water mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯Cl, N-H⋯O, O-H⋯Cl and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional structure.
