%X Complexes of zinc halides with heterocyclic bases of the types ZnX2B2, ZnX2B3, and ZnX2B4 have been prepared, where X = Cl, Br, I, or NCS and B = pyridine, 4-methylpyridine, or 2-methylpyridine. Infrared spectra and isomorphous incorporation of cobalt(II) indicate that in the solid state these compounds are tetrahedral, 5-coordinate, and octahedral respectively. Molecular weights and conductivities in nitrobenzene solution show that the compounds ZnX2B3 and ZnX2B4 dissociate in solution to ZnX2B4 and free base.
