A N3S1-type zinc(II) complex with 6-methylpyridylmethyl and mercaptoethyl groups, chloro{N-mercaptoethyl[bis(6- methyl-2-pyridylmethyl)amine]}zinc(II) complex 2, was synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Crystallographic studies show that the introduction of 6-methyl group into the pyridine ring changes the geometry from trigonal bipyramid to square pyramid.
