Abstract
The trinuclear complex [Zn3(MeCHCHCO2)6(C9H7N)2], prepared by the reaction of quinoline with ethanolic zinc(II) crotonate and studied by X-ray crystallography, contains a linear array of zinc atoms bridged by crotonated ligands; two of the crotonates bridge through only one oxygen atom each.
