Abstract The zinc thiodipropionate complex [Zn(tdp)] ( 1 ) [tdp = S(CH 2 CH 2 COO) 2 2– ] was obtained by reaction of aqueous zinc dichloride with a 1:1 mixture of Na 2 CO 3 and thiodipropionic acid. The bonding preferences of the tdp anion were studied by DFT methods. The reaction of 1 with o ‐phenanthroline (phen) gave the dinuclear compound [{Zn(phen)(H 2 O)} 2 (μ‐tdp) 2 ] · 3H 2 O ( 2 ), which was characterized by X‐ray analysis.
