Abstract
In the title compound, [ZnBr2(C11H10N2)], the ZnII atom is four-coordinated in a distorted tetrahedral configuration by two N atoms from a 6-methyl-2,2′-bipyridine ligand and two terminal Br atoms. Weak intermolecular C—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions between the pyridine rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.763 (5) and 3.835 (6) Å] contribute to crystal-packing effects.
