cis-Bis(2,2′-bipyridine-κ2 N,N′)bis­(dimethyl sulfoxide-κO)zinc bis­(tetra­phenyl­borate) dimethyl sulfoxide monosolvate

Abstract

In the mononuclear title complex, [Zn(C10H8N2)2(C2H6OS)2](C24H20B)2·C2H6OS, the ZnII ion is coordinated by four N atoms of two bidentate 2,2′-bipyridine mol­ecules and by the O atoms of two cis-disposed dimethyl sulfoxide mol­ecules in a distorted octa­hedral geometry. The S atom and the methyl groups of one of the coordinated dimethyl sulfoxide mol­ecules are disordered in a 0.509 (2):0.491 (2) ratio. The crystal packing is stabilized by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the dimethyl sulfoxide solvent mol­ecules and tetra­phenyl­borate anions
