Triaquabis[4-(methoxycarbonyl)benzoato-[kappa]O1]zinc dihydrate

Abstract top

In the crystal structure of the title complex, [Zn(C9H7O4)2(H2O)3]·2H2O, the Zn atom and the apical aqua ligand are located on a crystallographic twofold axis, with the ZnII ion in a distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry composed of five O atoms, two from the monodentate methylterephthalato group and three from water molecules. The resulting complex and the two hydrate water molecules are interconnected by O-H...O hydrogen bonds.

Comment top

The complex crystallizes in the space group C2/c, with half a molecule in the asymmetric unit. The angles are slightly distorted from regular square-pyramidal geometry and the Zn ion lies 0.3187 (3) Å above the basal plane. The fivefold coordination around the metal atom may be described as resulting from 65% of Berry pseudorotation from trigonal-bipyramidal to square pyramidal (Holmes, 1984). Selected bond distances are listed in Table 1. Packing in this solid is dominated by classical intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonding between the OH groups of the water molecules (donors of hydrogen bonds) and monoanions (acceptors of hydrogen bonds). All potential H donors find an acceptor in reasonable geometry for hydrogen bonding giving rise to C22(8) motifs in the a direction, C22(13) in the ac plane (Fig. 2) and C11(6) in the b direction (Fig. 3) (Etter et al., 1990; Etter, 1991). The hydrogen bond parameters are presented in Table 2. The shortest Zn···Zn separation amounts to 5.9719 (7) Å.

Experimental top

60 mg (2 mmol) Zn(NO3)2×6(H2O) and 40 mg (2 mmol) C9H7O4Na were stirred in 200 ml H2O at 50° C for 30 min. A white precipitate has formed, it has been removed by filtration. Slow evaporation of the solvent under ambient conditions gives crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction. Elemental analysis calcd (%): C 42.08, H 4.7, N 0; Found: C 41.54, H 4.94, N 0.

Refinement top

H atoms attached to oxygen were located from difference Fourier maps and treated as riding on the oxygen atoms with freely refined Uiso. H atoms attached to carbon were calculated and introduced in their idealized positions with Caryl—H 0.95 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C); Cmethyl—H 0.98 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(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.
