All chemicals and solvents were commercially available and used without further purification. The ligand H(Me2trzpba) was synthesized according to Lässig et al. (2009). (I) and (II) were synthesized as follows: in a typical procedure 21.7 mg (0.1 mmol) of the ligand was suspended in 2 ml of ethanol, to which a solution of 0.1 mmol zinc halide, dissolved in 2 ml distilled water, was added and stirred for 5 min at room temperature. Colourless prismatic crystals of (I) and (II) were obtained after 3–4 d by slow evaporation of the solvent under ambient conditions.
For (I): yield 13.3 mg; 22.0 µmol; 44% of th. (based on the ligand). IR (KBr): [cm-1] 3085m, 2968w, 1679 s, 1610 s, 1548 s, 1513m, 1418 s, 1387m, 1340m, 1313m, 1274 s, 1179m, 1131m, 1066w, 1044m, 1014 s, 871m, 805m, 793m, 770m, 701m, 632w, 558m, 528m.
For (II): yield: 7.5 mg; 10.8 µmol; 22% of th. (based on the ligand). IR (KBr): [cm-1] 3081m, 2973w, 1698m, 1607m, 1546 s, 1510m, 1416 s, 1381m, 1335m, 1300m, 1259 s, 1173m, 1124m, 1062w, 1037m, 1011 s, 871m, 807m, 788m, 764m, 698m, 629w, 555m, 525m.
Methyl H atoms were located in difference syntheses and thereafter refined as part of rigid rotating groups, with C—-H = 0.98Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C). Aromatic H atoms were placed geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.95Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). In each case, the acidic H1 atom on O1 was located in a difference Fourier map and refined as part of a rigid rotating group, with O—H = 0.84Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). The H atoms of the water molecule in each structure were located from difference Fourier maps and refined using distance restraints [O—H = 0.84 (2)Å and H···H = 1.33 (2)Å] and with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).

Geometry. All s.u. (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u. are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u. in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u. in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u. is used for estimating s.u. involving l.s. planes. |

Geometry. All s.u. (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u. are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u. in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u. in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u. is used for estimating s.u. involving l.s. planes. |

Typically, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) consist of inorganic building blocks, e.g. metal ions, or more complex secondary building blocks connected by bridging organic linkers. Knowledge of hydrogen bonding as well as of self-assembly is essential for understanding the underlying processes of MOF formation, and for the design of coordination polymers. The complexes reported herein, [ZnCl2(C11H11N3O2)2].2H2O, (I), and [ZnBr2(C11H11N3O2)2].2H2O, (II), containing additional noncoordinating water molecules, are excellent examples for investigating these properties.
Lukashuk et al. (2007) and Zou et al. (2005) reported the hydrogen-bonding behaviour of 4-(1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)benzoic acid. Depending on the reaction conditions, varying coordination behaviour of the ligand was observed. We synthesized 3,5-dimethyl-4-(1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)benzoic acid [H(Me2trzpba)] [ok?], the corresponding dimethylated triazol ligand. The methyl groups lead to a higher torsion angle of 59.44 (4)° between the phenyl ring and the triazole unit in the neat ligand H(Me2trzpba) in comparison to the unsubstituted 4-(1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)benzoic acid [33.79 (7)°, 20.77 (6)°]. This leads to enhanced solubility due to reduced π–π-stacking interactions (Lässig et al., 2009).
The crystal structures of two isostructural zinc halide complexes incorporating this new ligand are reported here. The synthesis of both complexes was performed by reacting the ligand with the respective zinc halide (chloride or bromide) in a water/ethanol mixture (1:1, v/v). While the pure ligand is only slightly soluble in water/ethanol, the addition of zinc chloride or zinc bromide increases the solubility significantly. A clear solution results, from which single crystals of (I) and (II), respectively, were obtained by slow evaporation of the solvent.
The asymmetric unit is represented by half of the complex where the Zn ions reside on the twofold axis in the achiral noncentrosymmetric orthorhombic space group Fdd2 (No. 43).
The Zn ion is approximately tetrahedrally coordinated by two monodentate triazol units and two halide ions (see scheme). The bond length of the coordinating N atoms to the metal ion is 2.055 (2) Å in (I) which correlates quite well with a typical Zn—N bond, as can be seen from Zn(dmatrz)2Cl2 (dmatrz = 3,5-dimethyl-4-amino-1,2,4-triazole) (Du, 2004).
The hydrogen-bonding interactions are discussed for (I). There are three types of hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2), all incorporating the water molecule (O3). As a result, a three-dimensional network (Fig. 3) is formed. A strong hydrogen bond can be found between O1 and O3 with a donor–acceptor distance of 2.605 (3) Å. Furthermore, the water molecule (O3) acts as a donor group in two further hydrogen-bonding interactions. One involves the carbonyl O atom O2 of a neighbouring complex with a distance of 2.788 (3) Å. The second, weaker hydrogen bond is directed to the N atom N2 of the triazole with a distance of 2.971 (3) Å.
The observation that the ligand HMe2trzpba is soluble in the presence of zinc halides led us to the conclusion that (I) and (II) already exist in solution. This shows impressively the ability of this ligand to competitively replace coordinating water and the dramatic change in solubility due to coordination.
