catena-Poly[[dichloridozinc(II)]-µ-1,4-bis-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene].

In the title one-dimensional coordination polymer, [ZnCl(2)(C(12)H(10)N(4))](n), the Zn(II) atom (site symmetry 2) is coordinated by two chloride ions and two 1,4-bis-(imidazol-1-yl)benzene ligands, generating a distorted tetra-hedral ZnCl(2)N(2) geometry for the metal ion. The bridging ligand, which is completed by crystallographic inversion symmetry, links the Zn(II) atoms into zigzag chains propagating in [101]. Within the ligand, the dihedral angle between the central benzene ring and terminal imidazole ring is 27.82 (13)°.

Dissecting basilar artery aneurysm manifesting as sudden sensorineural hearing loss: a case report and literature review.

Highlights • Dissecting basilar artery aneurysm (DBAA) is relatively rare. • We report the first case of a DBAA manifesting as sudden sensorineural hearing loss. • This case report adds to the symptom spectrum of DBAA.
