Diacetatobis[1,3-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)benzene]zinc(II) dihydrate
The N-heterocycle was prepared according to reported procedure (Chawla &
Gill,1997). Zinc nitrate hexahydrate (0.074 g, 0.25 mmol),
1,3-bis(benzimidazolyl-2-ylmethyl)benzene (0.15 g, 0.5 mmol), acetic acid (2 ml) and water (15 ml) were placed in a 23 ml Teflon-lined stainless steel Parr
bomb. The bomb was heated at 433 K for 5 days and cooled to room temperature
at 5 K h-1.Colorless block crystals were obtained in 15% yield.
H atoms attached to oxygen and nitrogen were located in the Fourier maps, and
refined with restrained N—H = 0.87 Å, O—H = 0.84 Å distances and free
isotropic displacement factots. C—H's were placed at geometrically idealized
positions with C—H = 0.95 Å (aromatic), 0.98 Å (methyl) and
Uiso(H) = 1.2(aromatic), 1.5(methyl)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. |

Benzimidazolyl derivatives and their transition metal complexes have been extensively investigated (Shivakumaraiah et al., 2003). In previous works zinc terephthalate and zinc succinate adducts of 1,3-bis(benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)benzene have been reported (Meng et al., 2007; Meng et al., 2007). The present work reports the crystal structure of [Zn(ac)2(L)2].2H2O, (I), where L is 1,3-bis(benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)benzene and ac is the acetate ion, which assumes a similar geometry to previously reported complexes in the literature (Meng et al., 2007). (shown in scheme I). The crystal structure of (I) consists of the mononuclear zinc(II) complex and solvato water molecules (Fig. 1). The Zn atom is four-coordinate with two N atoms and two O atoms from the 1,3-bis(benzimidazol-2- ylmethyl)benzene and the acetate ligands, respectively. (Zn—O: 2.0145 (9) Å, Zn—N: 2.0477 (10) Å, coordination angle range: 101.39 (4)- 127.50 (5) °.). The complex and solvent water molecules are connected via O—H···N, O—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional network (Table 1).
