3-{3,3'-[(1,7-dioxa-4,10-diazacyclododecane-4,10-diyl)bis(methylene)]dibenzoato}]The ZnII ion in the title compound, [Zn(C24H28N2O6)]n, is located on a twofold rotation axis and is at the midpoint of a crown-4 moiety of 3,3'-[(1,7-dioxa-4,10-diazacyclododecane-4,10-diyl)bis(methylene)]dibenzoate anion. It is octahedrally coordinated by two N atoms and two O atoms of the crown moiety from one ligand and two carboxylate O atoms from two bridging intra-chain ligands. Metallomacrocyclic rings are identified in the structure. The metallomacrocycle contains two ZnII ions and 14 atoms from the bridging ligands. Repetition of these units gives rise to an infinite zigzag chain along [101]. C-H
O hydrogen bonds occur.
The title compound was synthesized in an autoclave by mixing the ligand, 3,3'-((1,7-dioxa-4,10-diazacyclododecane-4,10-diyl)bis(methylene))dibenzoic acid, LH2 (2x10-6 mol), Zn(NO3)2.6H2O (6x10-6 mol, 1.79 mg), H2O (0.60 ml) and pyridine (2x10-3 ml) in a vial of 2 ml capacity. The mixture was heated at 85 °C for 7 d and then cooled to ambient temperature. The white crystals were collected and washed with H2O by filtration. Elem. anal. calcd. C24H28N2O6Zn %: C, 56.98; H, 5.58; N, 5.54; Found: C, 56.99; H, 5.79; N, 5.58.
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 > 2sigma(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.

Experimental. Absorption correction: SADABS (Bruker-AXS, 2008) was used for absorption correction. R(int) was 0.0732 before and 0.0388 after correction. The ratio of minimum to maximum transmission is 0.6049. The λ/2 correction factor is not present. |
Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles |
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. |

The title compound 1 is the first of a series of coordination polymers that were synthesized from the ligand LH2, 3,3'-((1,7-dioxa-4,10-diazacyclododecane-4,10-diyl)bis(methylene)) dibenzoic acid. In these new compounds the metal atoms are positioned in the center of the organic linker.
The asymmetric unit of 1 contains a ZnII ion and a deprotonated ligand L with formula C24H28N2O6Zn. The ZnII ion is 6-coordinate in a distorted octahedral geometry being bound to two nitrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms of the crown (1,7-diaza-12-crown-4) and two carboxylic oxygen atoms, one from each of two additional intra-chain ligands (Fig. 1). The Zn1—O1, Zn1—O3 and Zn1—N1 bond lengths are 1.978 (2) Å, 2.287 (2) Å and 2.242 (2) Å, respectively. The O1—Zn1—O1 angle is 107.54 (8)°. The shortest distance between two neighboring ZnII ions in a chain is 9.019 (1) Å.
The ZnII ion of the Zn(crown-4)2+ unit is located on a 2-fold rotation axis. The symmetry independent atoms consist of one half of the ligand with the rotation axis generating the second half of the ligand at the Zn atom. Bond circuits consisting of sixteen-membered metallomacrocycle rings can be identified in the structure. Each ring contains two ZnII ions and fourteen non-H atoms of the ligand. Each ZnII ion is a node for three ligands and two connected rings (Fig. 1). The pair of benzene moieties within a metallomacrocycle ring are co-planar within one standard deviation (0.0 (2)°) and the dihedral angle between this plane and the plane of the next two nearest phenyl rings along the 1-D chain is 68.79 (5)°. Repetition of these units creates a 1-D polymer network with an infinite number of these rings.
