title: Bis(2-{[(9H-fluoren-2-yl)methyl-idene]amino}-phenolato-κ(2)N,O)zinc methanol disolvate.
abstract: In the title compound, [Zn(C(20)H(14)NO)(2)]·2CH(3)OH, the Zn(II) atom lies on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis and is coordinated by two O atoms and two N atoms from two bidentate 2-{[(9H-fluoren-2-yl)methyl-idene]amino}-phenolate ligands within a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The dihedral angle between the two chelate rings is 82.92 (5)°. In the coordinated ligand, the phenol ring is twisted at 30.22 (9)° from the mean plane of the fluorene ring. In the crystal, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the complex mol-ecules to the methanol solvent mol-ecules.
