Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Zn(C(10)H(6)NO(2))(2)(C(12)H(8)N(2))] x 1.5C(3)H(7)NO, contains one monomeric zinc complex and 1.5 disordered dimethylformamide solvate molecules. The Zn atom is coordinated to one 1,10-phenanthroline ligand and to two isoquinolinecarboxylate anions (IQC-) via their N and O atoms. The complex exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry around the Zn(II) atom, with the apical positions occupied by the O atoms of the IQC- ligands. The Zn atom lies 0.049 (1) A out of the basal plane. The crystal packing is characterized by several hydrogen bonds.
