The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

The title compound, [Zn(O2CC6H4NO2)(2) (H2O)(2)], has zinc in a coordination geometry intermediate between tetrahedral and octahedral, with each carboxylate ligand forming a primary and a secondary Zn-O bond; the lengths of these differ by more than 0.5 Angstrom. The molecule has crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds are formed between the aqua ligands as donors and carboxylate O atoms as acceptors, linking the molecules together into sheets, the closest contacts between which involve the nitro groups.
