Supporting information
A mixture of 2-(5-(pyridin-3-yl)-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)pyrazine (0.0448 g, 0.2 mmol), Zn(CH3COO)2.2H2O (0.0220 g, 0.1 mmol), water (6 mL), N,N-dimethylformamide (2 mL) was stirred vigorously for 30 min and then sealed in a Teflon-lined stainless-steel autoclave. The autoclave was heated and maintained at 433 K for 3 d, and then cooled to room temperature at 5 K h-1 to obtain crystals suitable for X-ray analysis.
All H-atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with C–H = 0.93 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) for aromatic hydrogen atoms. The H-atoms of O atoms were identified from a difference Fourier map and refined with O–H = 0.85 (2) Å, Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).

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. |

1,2,4-Triazole derivatives are important building blocks of many important compounds widely used in medicine, agriculture, industry, and coordination chemistry (Zhang et al., 2012; Chen et al., 2006). During the synthesis of polymeric complexes using 2-(5-(pyridin-3-yl)-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)pyrazine as building blocks and, to our surprise, the title monomeric Zn(II) complex was obtained.
The title compound is a crstallographically centrosymmetric mononuclear complex. The ZnII cation is in a distaorted octahedral geometry (Fig. 1) and is coordinated by four N atoms from two 2-(5-(pyridin-3-yl)-1,2,4-triazolido-3-yl)pyrazine ligands and two coordinated water molecules. The observed Zn–O and Zn–N bond distances and bond angles reveal usual values. In the crystal, classic O–H···N hydrogen bonds, weak C—H···O hydrogen bond and π-π stacking between aromatic rings connect the molecules into the three dimensional supramolecular architecture [centroids between triazole and pyrazine rings and between triazole and pyridine rings being 3.623 (2) and 3.852 (2) Å, respectively].
