Bis(5-aminoisoquinoline)diazidozinc(II)

Z.-X. Miao, M. Shao and M.-X. Li

Abstract: The solution reaction of Zn²⁺ with 5-aminoisoquinoline and NaN₃ afforded the mononuclear title complex, [Zn(N₃)₂(C₉H₈N₂)₂]. The azide anions and the 5-aminoisoquinoline molecules act as monodentate ligands, resulting in a slightly distorted ZnN₄ tetrahedron. A network of weak N-HN hydrogen bonds helps to consolidate the crystal packing.
