title: Poly[bis-(μ(2)-5-{4-[(1H-imidazol-1-yl)meth-yl]phen-yl}tetra-zolato)zinc].
abstract: In the title compound, [Zn(C(11)H(9)N(6))(2)](n), the Zn(II) atom lies on an inversion center and is coordinated by four N atoms from four 5-[4-(1H-imidazol-1-ylmeth-yl)phen-yl]tetra-zolate ligands in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The ligands bridge the Zn(II) atoms, leading to the formation of a two-dimensional network parallel to (010). The structure is further stabilized by C-H⋯N, C-H⋯π and π-π [centroid-centroid distance = 3.7523 (11) Å] inter-actions within the network.
