Abstract
The title compound, [Zn(C2N3)2(C12H9NO)2]n, is a polymeric zinc(II) complex with the metal ion located on an inversion centre. The ZnII ion is six-coordinated by two N atoms of two 3-benzoylpyridine ligands and four N atoms from four dicyanamide ligands, forming a slightly distorted octahedral configuration. In the crystal structure, neighboring Zn atoms are linked together by double dicyanamide bridges to form a polymeric zinc(II) complex.
