Crystal Structure and Physical Characterisation of [Zn<Subscript>2</Subscript>(Benzoato)<Subscript>4</Subscript>(Caffeine)<Subscript>2</Subscript>]·2 Caffeine

Abstract  

The crystal structure of [Zn₂(benzoato)₄(caffeine)₂]·(caffeine)₂ was determined by direct method and Fourier technique. The structure was refined by full-matrix least-squares method to a weighted R factor of 0.0582. The structure consists of centrosymmetric dimeric units where the two zinc(II) atoms are coordinated by four bridging benzoates in a syn–syn arrangement and two caffeine ligands at the apices of a bicapped square prism. Remaining two caffeines are bound only by hydrogen bonds. The Zn–Zn distance is 2.961(1) ?. The Zn(II) atoms are displaced by 0.365 ? from the basal plane containing four oxygen atoms towards the apical caffeine molecules. The dimeric structure of the complex is consistent with spectrum and thermal data. The structural data are compared with those found in similar [Zn₂(RCOO)₄(NL)₂] complexes.
