The ZnII atom lies on an inversion center in a distorted octahedral environment with two planar trans-related N,N¡ä-chelating 2-[5-(2-pyridyl)-2H-tetrazol-2-yl]acetic acid ligands in the equatorial plane and two water molecules in the axial positions. In the crystal, O¡ªH...O hydrogen bonds generate an infinite three-dimensional network. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536809023940
