Abstract

The complex, tri-chlorido-(1,4,11-tri-aza-8-azonia-tetra-cyclo-[6.6.2.04,16.011,15]hexa-decane 1-oxide-κO)zinc(II) monohydrate, [ZnCl3(C12H23N4O)]·H2O, (I), has monoclinic symmetry (space group P21/n) at 120 K. The zinc(II) center adopts a slightly distorted tetra-hedral coordination geometry and is coordinated by three chlorine atoms and the oxygen atom of the oxidized tertiary amine of the tetra-cycle. The amine nitro-gen atom, inside the ligand cleft, is protonated and forms a hydrogen bond to the oxygen of the amine oxide. Additional hydrogen-bonding inter-actions involve the protonated amine, the water solvate oxygen atom, and one of the chloro ligands.
