L. Yao and W. J. Li

Abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Zn(C6H5COO)2(C12H12N2)]·C6H5COOH, the Zn atom is pentacoordinated in distorted square-pyramidal geometry by two O atoms of a benzoate anion and two N atoms of a 6,6'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine ligand occupying the basal plane and an O atom of another benzoate anion located at the apical site. In the crystal structure, intermolecular O-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds and C-H...[pi] interactions are present.
