Abstract top

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.

Comment top

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.

Experimental top

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.

Refinement top

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.
