The X-ray crystal structure of (C 54 H 42 B 2 N 12 Zn)*2(C H Cl 3 ) is reported. The title compound is a chloroform-solvated neutral complex crystallizing in the Triclinic space group, P − 1, with two half complexes (each located on a crystallographic center of inversion) and two full chloroform molecules appearing in the asymmetric unit. The capping ligands are related by symmetry and together form, essentially, an octahedral coordination sphere. Strain is apparent in the complex as indicated by asymmetric bond distances and angles. Final statistical data: R  = 4.60% with I  > 2σ( I ), a  = 11.2912(8) Å, b  = 14.7912(11) Å, c  = 17.0047(13) Å, α = 72.3560(10)°, β = 89.8950(10)°, γ = 88.1010(10)°, Z  = 2.
