{2,2′-[(1,2-Di­cyano­ethene-1,2-di­yl)bis­(nitrilo­methanylyl­idyne)]diphenolato-κ(4) O,N,N′,O′}(methanol-κO)zinc

In the title complex, [Zn(C(18)H(10)N(4)O(2))(CH(4)O)], the Zn(2+) cation is located on a mirror plane and is coordinated by a tetradentate Schiff base ligand anion (L (2−)) and a methanol mol­ecule. The Zn(2+) cation is surrounded by two N atoms and two O atoms from L (2−), in a nearly planar configuration, and one methanol O atom, forming a slightly distorted square-pyramidal geometry. The methanol molecule is disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.5:0.5 ratio. In the crystal, O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains parallel to [001].
