Summary Three adducts of zinc azide with 2,4-/3,4- and 3,5-dimethylpyridine (DMP), respectively, were prepared and the crystal structures determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The three compounds crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/c withZ=4: Zn(N3)2·2,4-DMP at 300 (2) K:a=1 098.6(4),b=1 600.2(6),c=608.8(3) pm, β=102.47(3)°;R=0.071 (R w =0.056). Zn(N3)2·3,4-DMP at 103 (3) K:a=1 102.1(3),b=1 649.0(4),c=611.8(1) pm, β=104.54(2)°;R=0.055 (R w =0.051). Zn(N3)2·3,5-DMP at 97 (3) K:a=602.1(2),b=2 037.9(7),c=853.8(3) pm, β=90.77(3)°;R=0.069 (R w =0.055). The molecular geometry is similar for the three adducts, but the packing of theDMP-molecules is different. The zinc atoms are surrounded by five nitrogen atoms, four belonging to the azide groups and one to theDMP-adduct. The trigonal bipyramidal shaped ZnN5-polyhedra share common edges to form chains.
