title: 8-Hy-droxy-2-methyl-quinolinium dibromido(2-methyl-quinolin-8-olato-κN,O)zincate acetonitrile mono-solvate.
abstract: The reaction of 2-methyl-8-hy-droxy-quinoline and zinc bromide in acetonitrile affords the title solvated salt, (C(10)H(10)NO)[ZnBr(2)(C(10)H(8)NO)]·CH(3)CN, in which the Zn(II) ion is coordinated by a N,O-chelating 2-methyl-quinolin-8-olate ligand and two bromide ligands in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The cation is linked to the anion by an O-H⋯O hydrogen bond and the quinolinium H atom forms an inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bond with the acetonitrile solvent mol-ecule.
