Synthesis,Characterization and Crystal Structure of Bis(isothiocyanato)-bis(pyridine) Zinc(II) Crystal

Abstract  Bis(isothiocyanato)-bis(pyridine) zinc(II) crystal has been prepared at room temperature and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectrum and X-ray single crystal determination. The complex crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2₁/m with unit cell parameters: a = 5.5786(3), b = 11.0587(5), c = 12.1616(6) ?, β = 96.776(3)°, V = 745.03(6) ?³, Z = 2, D _x  = 1.514 g cm⁻³. The X-ray structure determination has revealed that the crystal is centered-symmetrical and the crystallographic symmetry face runs the two isothiocyanate ligands and the Zn(II) cation. Index Abstract  The title compound, bis(isothiocyanato)-bis(pyridine) zinc(II), was synthesized by zinc compound, KSCN and C₅H₅N (pyridine) and its crystal structure was determined. Single crystal X-ray structure determination reveals that the crystal is centered-symmetrical, and the crystallographic symmetry face runs the two isothiocyanate ligands and the Zn(II) cation.
