(Acetato-κO){2-[(2-aminoethyl-κN)disulfanyl]ethanaminium}dichloridozinc(II)

In the title compound, [Zn(C4H13N2S2)(CH3COO)Cl2], the ZnII ion is in a tetrahedral coordination geometry, coordinated by one acetate, two chloride and one 2-[(2-aminoethyl)disulfanyl]ethanaminium ligand, with a Zn—O distance of 1.977 (3) Å, a Zn—N distance of 2.015 (3) Å and Zn—Cl distances of 2.2673 (18) and 2.2688 (15) Å. In the crystal, molecules are self-assembled by N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds, leading to a one-dimensional chain structure. The chains interact with each other through N—H...O, N—H...S, C—H...Cl and C—H...S hydrogen bonding, completing a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding network structure
