Di-μ-chlorido-bis­{chlorido[(R)/(S)-1,5-di­phenyl-3-(2-pyridyl-κN)-2-pyrazoline-κN (2)]zinc(II)}

In the centrosymmetric binuclear title compound, [Zn(2)Cl(4)(C(20)H(17)N(3))(2)], the coordination geometry of the Zn(II) ion can be described as a distorted ZnN(2)Cl(3) trigonal bipyramid (τ = 0.89), arising from the N,N′-bidentate ligand, a terminal chloride ion and two bridging chloride ions. The N atoms occupy one axial and one equatorial site and the terminal chloride ion occupies an equatorial site. The dihedral angle between the pyridine and pyrazole rings is 12.8 (2)°. In the crystal, aromatic π–π stacking [centroid–centroid separations = 3.812 (3) and 3.848 (3) Å] and C—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯π inter­actions help to establish the packing.
