Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [ZnBr(2)(C(12)H(12)N(2))], contains two half-mol-ecules; both are completed by crystallographic twofold axes running through the Zn(II) atoms which are coordinated by an N,N'-bidentate 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine ligand and two Br(-) ions, resulting in distorted ZnN(2)Br(2) tetra-hedral coordination geometries. In the crystal, C-H⋯Br inter-actions link the mol-ecules.
