3O:O:O'], [Zn2(SO3)2(C12H10N2)(H2O)]n, (II). In (I), the dinuclear ZnII complex has a center of symmetry. The cation is five-coordinate in a square-pyramidal arrangement, the anion fulfilling a bridging chelating role. Compound (II) comprises two different zinc units, one being five-coordinate (square pyramidal) and the other four-coordinate (trigonal pyramidal), and two independent sulfite groups with different binding modes to the cationic centers.
Formula: [Zn2(SO3)2(C12H12N2)]·2H2O and [Zn2(SO3)2(C12H10N2)(H2O)]

If the supplementary material that you require is not shown in the list above, it may only be available in our hard-copy archive. However, our policy is to progressively digitize old hard-copy supplementary documents where possible.
Please help us to work towards this goal by completing the form below. This will register your wish to receive a supplementary document, which we shall scan to create a PDF and then make available via the web to you and to other requestors in the future.
