Diaquabis(4-methylbenzoato-O)zinc(II)

D.-Y. Ma, G.-H. Deng and W.-D. Song

Abstract: The Zn atom in the title mononuclear complex, [Zn(C₈H₇O₂)₂(H₂O)₂], lies on a special position of site symmetry 2. The carboxylate group binds in a monodentate manner so that the geometry is best described as tetrahedral. Adjacent molecules are linked by O-HO hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network.
