Abstract
The reaction of zinc acetate and 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline in methanol yielded the centrosymmetric dinuclear title compound, [Zn2(C10H8NO)2(CH3CO2)2(CH3OH)2], which has the Zn atom within a distorted NO4 trigonal–bipyramidal coordination geometry. Methanol–acetate O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the dinculear units into a linear supramolecular chain extending parallel to [100].
Related literature
Unlike 8-hydroxyquinoline, which yields a large number of metal derivatives, 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline forms only a small number of metal chelates. Besides a related chloride salt (Sattarzadeh et al., 2009 ▶), there is only one crystal structure report of another zinc derivative; for aquabis(2-methylquinolin-8-ato)zinc, see: da Silva et al. (2007 ▶).

Experimental
Zinc acetate (0.17 g, 0.75 mmol) and 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline (0.24 g, 1.5 mmol) were loaded into a convection tube; the tube was filled with dry methanol and kept at 333 K. Crystals were collected from the side arm after several days. Although well formed, all specimens had a slightly blemished interior.
Refinement
The crystal used in the study was a multiply twinned crystal. The diffraction intensities were separated with the RLATT routine of the data collection software, and that component that diffracted to the highest 2θ limit was selected for integration. Although the specimen diffracted strongly, with a high proportion of 'observeds', there was serious overlapping between the main component and the minor components, particularly at low angles.
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.95 to 0.98 Å; O–H 0.84 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2 to 1.5U(C, O).
The final difference Fourier map had a large peak/deep hole in the vicinity of the Zn1 atom. These could not be reduced even with the 2θ maximum was lowered to 50 °.
