O1)zinc(II)The title compound, [Zn(C7H4FO3)2(H2O)2], is a monomeric ZnII complex. The ZnII atom, which lies on a twofold rotation axis, is situated in a distorted tetrahedral environment composed of two monodentate carboxlyate O atoms and two water O atoms. O-H
O hydrogen bonds link these units, forming sheets that are stacked along the c axis.
All chemicals and solvents were purchased from commercial sources and used without further purification. 5-Fluorosalicylic acid (3 mmol) was added to 100 ml of water and subsequently brought to pH 6.5 by the addition of 3M NaOH with constant stirring. To this solution was added 10 ml of a 0.10 M solution of Zn(NO3)2.6H2O. Single crystals of the title compound were formed in four weeks after complete evaporation of the solution under ambient conditions.
H atoms bonded to C atoms were positioned geometrically and refined as riding atoms. O-bound H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically, with their O—H distances restrained to 0.84 (2) Å.

Metal carboxylate complexes have long been an extensively studied class of compounds (Mehrotra & Bohra, 1983), and in recent years they have become a major focus of study due to their potentally useful properties (Janiak, 2003; Wasuke et al., 2005). As a continuation of our own studies (Ellsworth & zur Loye, 2008), we report here the crystal structure of the title compound.
The structure of the title compound is built from the monomeric complex of formula Zn(5-fsalcyl)2(H2O)2 (Fig. 1) (5-fsalcyl = 5-fluorosalicylate). The asymmetric unit consists of one ZnII atom that lies on a twofold rotation axis, one 5-fsalcyl ligand, and one water molecule. The coordination environment of the ZnII atom is that of a distorted tetrahedron consisting of two equivalent O atoms from two monodentate carboxylates, and two equivalent O atoms from two water molecules. All four Zn—O bond distances fall within the normal range, with an average length of 1.969 (2) Å. It is worth noting that for the carboxylate O2 atom, the Zn···O2 distance of 2.692 (2)Å falls outside the range considered normal for a Zn—O coordination bond (Wang et al., 2006).
Due to its monodentate binding mode, the 5-fsalcyl carboxylate group adopts a highly asymmetrical configuration. This is manifested in a C1—O1 distance [1.289 (3) Å] for the coordinating O atom that is noticeably longer than the C1—O2 distance [1.246 (3) Å] corresponding to the noncoordinating O atom. In addition, the carboxylate group of the 5-fsalcyl ligand is twisted with a dihedral angle of 9.7 (2) ° with respect to the phenyl ring. As is typical for salicylates, the hydroxyl group of 5-fsalcyl is internally hydrogen bonded to its carboxylate O1 that is located on the same side of the ligand (Brownless et al., 1999).
The monomeric units are hydrogen bonded into chains that are themselves hydrogen bonded into sheets that are stacked along the c axis (Fig. 2).
