Abstract

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [ZnCl2{(C6H5)3PO}2]·2THF (THF is tetra­hydro­furan, C4H8O), the ZnII ion is four-coordinated by two Cl atoms and two O atoms in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. Additionally, two solvent THF mol­ecules occupy the open space in the unit cell, not bonding to the Zn atom. The Zn—Cl distances are 2.2108 (6) and 2.2165 (6) Å, and the Zn—O distances are 1.9851 (15) and 1.9751 (15) Å. Within the tetrahedral coordination sphere around the central Zn atom, the bond angles are O1—Zn—O2 98.16 (6)° and Cl1—Zn—Cl2 120.55 (2)°; the four Cl—Zn—O bond angles range from 107.43 (4) to 110.55 (4)°.
