Abstract: A crystalline salt comprising two monoprotonated polyamine ligands and one tetrachlorozincate(II) anion was prepared, (C 24 H 32 N 3 ) 2 [ZnCl 4 ], and its crystal structure was analyzed and compared with those of structurally related compounds bearing different macrocyclic frameworks and pendant arms. The protonated nitrogen atoms engaged in intramolecular hydrogen bonding with other nitrogen atoms within the macrocyclic ring. In the crystal, the pendant anthracene groups participated in intermolecular π–π and C—H...π interactions, contributing to crystal cohesion.
