Abstract

In the title salt, [Zn-2(C2H8N2)(5)](ClO4)(4), an ethylenediamine molecule bridges two bis(ethylenediamine) zinc units; the five-coordinate Zn atoms show a trigonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry that is distorted towards square-pyramidal (that of one Zn atom is distorted by 12% and that of the other by 34%). The perchlorate ions are all disordered over two positions in a 1:1 ratio. The cation interacts weakly with the anion by N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds, generating a three-dimensional network.
