Abstract
The crystal structure of (N-sailcylidene ethanolaminato) Zn (II) has been determined by the single crystal X-ray diffraction method. The compound crystallizes in space group P42/n with unit cell dimensions of a=15.004, c=8.125A and Z=8. The complex is tetrameric with 4 symmetry. The core unit of the tetrameric structure has a distorted cubic array of four zinc ions and four oxygen atoms of ethanolamine which occupy the eight vertices alternately.
