Abstract: | Zn(Ofl) · (H2O)] · 2H2O (1) and Co(Enox)2] · 4H2O (2) were obtained by hydrothermal reactions. The solid-state structures have been characterized by IR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Complex 1 crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P 1, with lattice parameters a = 9.2923(5), b = 11.3432(6), c = 17.7722(10) Å, α = 92.839(3), β = 94.826(3), γ = 91.909(3)°, V = 1863.01(18) Å3, Z = 2, D Calcd = 1.494 mg m?3. The coordination environment around Zn2+ is a slightly distorted square pyramid. Complex 2 crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P2(1)/c, with lattice parameters a = 5.97980(10), b = 21.4183(3), c = 13.1539(2) Å, V = 100.2810(10), Z = 2, D Calcd = 1.526 mg m?3, Co(II) ion is a distorted octahedral geometry. |
