•Diethylzinc-pyridine adducts have been investigated by IR and Raman spectroscopy.•The crystal structure of Et2Zn(py)2 (2) has been determined by X-ray diffraction.•Experimental results have been supported by computational methods.
The liquid diethylzinc-pyridine adducts Et2Zn(py) (1, py = pyridine) and Et2Zn(py)2 (2) have been investigated in detail by infrared and Raman spectroscopy. Furthermore, the crystal structure of 2 has been determined for the first time by X-ray diffraction. The structures of 1 and 2 and the assignment of vibrational modes are supported by quantum chemical calculations.
