2O1:O2\]
In the solid state, the title compound, [Zn(C8H4O4)(C5H8N2)2]n, exhibits polymeric zigzag chains extended along th c axis. Each ZnII ion is coordinated by two N and two O atoms in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. Weak C-H
O interactions contribute to the crystal packing stability.
The reaction of ZnCl2(0.68 g, 5 mmol) with o-phthalic acid (0.83 g, 5 mmol) in an aqueous-alcohol (3:1) solution (40 ml) at 363 K for 30 minutes
produced a blue solution, to which 1-ethylimidazole (0.95 g,10 mmol) was
added. The reaction solution was kept at room temperature after stirring for
an hour at 333 K. colorless crystals were obtained after a few days.
H atoms were positioned geometrically(C—H = 0.93–0.97 Å) and allowed to
ride on their parent atoms with Uiso(H) = 1.2 times Ueq(C).

Special details top
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes)
are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken
into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles
and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only
used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic)
treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s.
planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor
wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional
R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for
negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 >
σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc.
and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement.
R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large
as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be
even larger. |

In the title compound,(I)(Fig. 1), The zinc(II) centers are bridged by the carboxylate group of o-phthalate and saturated by 1-ethylimidazole. Each ZnII ion is coordinated by two N [Zn—N1 = 1.993 (8), Zn—N3 = 2.028 (8) Å] and two O [Zn—O2 = 1.974 (6), Zn—O3 = 1.976 (7) Å] atoms in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. All these values agree well with those observed in [Zn(phthalato)(1-H-imidazole)2] (Liu et al., 2002). Each o-phthalate dianion acts as a bidentate ligand to bridge two ZnII atoms through two monodentate carboxylate groups, building a zigzag infinite chain structure alonge the c axis. The metal-metal distances across each polymer backbone are 6.889 (3) Å. In the crystal, Weak C—H···O interactions contribute to the crystal packing stability.
