Iodo­(picolinato‐κ2N,O)(picolinic acid‐κ2N,O)mercury(II)

The title compound, [Hg(C₆H₄NO₂)I(C₆H₅NO₂)], has twofold symmetry along the Hg—I bond. The Hg^II ion coordinates one I atom [at 2.6045 (4) Å], two N and two O atoms [at 2.298 (3) and 2.481 (2) Å] from one picolinate ion, and one picolinic acid mol­ecule in a very irregular trigonal–bipyramidal coordination. The single hydr­oxy H atom required for chemical neutrality is both statistically (by crystal symmetry) and structurally disordered, and is involved in an inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond [O⋯O = 2.455 (4) Å], connecting the mol­ecules into one‐dimensional infinite chains along the [101] direction.     

mer‐Di­aqua­bis(1H‐imidazole‐κN3)(orotato‐κ2N3,O4)­nickel(II)

The title mononuclear complex, [Ni(C₅H₂N₂O₄)(C₃H₄N₂)₂(H₂O)₂] or [Ni(HOr)(im)₂(H₂O)₂] (im is imidazole and H₃Or is orotic acid, or 2,6‐dioxo‐1,2,3,6‐tetra­hydro­pyrimidine‐4‐carboxylic acid), has been synthesized and the crystal structure determination is reported. The Ni^II ion in the complex has a distorted octahedral coordination geometry comprised of one deprotonated pyrimidine N atom and the adjacent carboxyl­ate O atom of the orotate ligand, two tertiary imidazole N atoms and two aqua ligands. An extensive three‐dimensional network of OW—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and π–π and π–ring interactions are responsible for crystal stabilization.     

Aqua(dipicolinato‐κ3O2,N,O6)(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ2N,N′)manganese(II) monohydrate

In the title compound [systematic name: aqua(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ²N,N′)(pyridine‐2,6‐di­carboxyl­ato‐κ³O²,N,O⁶)manganese(II) monohydrate, [Mn(C₇H₃NO₄)(C₁₂H₈N₂)(H₂O)]·H₂O, the manganese(II) centre is surrounded by one bidentate phenanthroline ligand [Mn—N = 2.248 (3) and 2.278 (3) Å], one tridentate dipicolinate ligand [Mn—N = 2.179 (3) Å, and Mn—O = 2.237 (2) and 2.266 (2) Å] and one water mol­ecule [Mn—O = 2.117 (3) Å], and it exhibits a strongly distorted octahedral geometry, with trans angles ranging from 144.12 (9) to 158.88 (11)°. Extensive intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding interactions involving coordinated and uncoordinated water mol­ecules and the carboxyl O atoms of the dipicolinate ligand, as well as a stacking interaction involving the phenanthroline rings, are observed in the crystal structure.     

Poly[(μ2‐aqua‐κ2O:O)(μ3‐azido‐κ3N1:N1:N3)(μ2‐isonicotinato‐κ2O:O′)lead(II)]

In the title compound, [Pb(C₆H₄NO₂)(N₃)(H₂O)]_n, the Pb ion is seven‐coordinated by three N atoms from three azide ligands, two O atoms from two isonicotinate (inic) ligands and two O atoms from two coordinated water molecules, forming a distorted monocapped triangular prismatic coordination geometry. Each azide ligand bridges three Pb^II ions in a μ_1,1,3 coordination mode to form a two‐dimensional three‐connected 6³ topology network extending in the bc plane. The carboxylate group of the inic unit and the aqua ligand act as coligands to bridge Pb^II ions. Adjacent two‐dimensional layers are connected by hydrogen‐bonding interactions between the isonicotinate N atom and the water molecule, resulting in an extended three‐dimensional network. The title complex is the first reported coordination polymer involving a p‐block metal, an azide and a carboxylate.
