ABSTRACT
The title one-dimensional coordination polymer, [ZnCl(2)(C(10)H(14)N(4))](n), was synthesized by hydro-thermal methods from ZnCl(2) and 1,1'-(butane-1,4-di-yl)diimidazole. The Zn atom is coordinated by two chloride ions and two N atoms from two symmetry-independent organic ligands and shows a distorted tetra-hedral coordination geometry. The 1,1'-(butane-1,4-di-yl)diimidazole ligands are located around two sets of inversion centers and bridge Zn(II) ions, forming a zigzag polymeric chain. C-Hâ¯Cl hydrogen bonding results in the formation of a three-dimensional supra-molecular network.
ABSTRACT
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Cu(C(6)H(15)NO(3))(H(2)O)(2)]SO(4)·H(2)O, contains a complex cation, a sulfate anion and one uncoordinated water mol-ecule. In the complex cation, the Cu(II) ion is coordinated by five O atoms (three of which are from the triethano-lamine ligand and two from coordinated water mol-ecules) and one N atom of the triethano-lamine ligand in a typical Jahn-Teller-distorted octa-hedral geometry. Classical inter-molecular O-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds link the cation, the sulfate anion and the water mol-ecule into a two-dimensional network.
