Bis[2-(3,4-disulfanylphenyl)acetato]bis(2-methyl-1H-imidazole-κN 3)zinc(II)

In the title mononuclear zinc(II) complex, [Zn(C8H7O2S2)2(C4H6N2)2], the ZnII atom, lying on a twofold axis, is coordinated by two O atoms from two 2-(3,4-disulfanylphenyl)acetate anions and by two N atoms from 2-methylimidazole ligands in a distorted tetrahdral coordination. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular C—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.6136 (16) Å.
