Abstract: | Bis(N,N‐di‐n‐butyldithiocarbamato‐κ2S,S′)(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ2N,N′)zinc(II) ethanol hemisolvate, Zn(C9H18NS2)2(C12H8N2)]·0.5C2H6O, (I), and bis(N,N‐di‐n‐hexyldithiocarbamato‐κ2S,S′)bis(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ2N,N′)calcium(II), Ca(C13H26NS2)2(C12H8N2)2], (II), are mixed‐ligand complexes. In the first compound, the Zn atom has a distorted octahedral coordination, while in the second compound, the Ca atom is eight‐coordinate, with four S and four N atoms forming a highly distorted cube. |
