Tetraaquabis[5-(3-pyridyl)tetrazolido-κ N 5 ]zinc(II) tetrahydrate

The title compound, [Zn(C6H4N5)2(H2O)4]·4H2O, was synthesized by the hydrothermal reaction of Zn(CH3COO)2·2H2O with 3-(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)pyridine. The ZnII ion is located on an inversion center and is coordinated by two pyridine N atoms from two 5-(3-pyridyl)tetrazolide ligands and...

Description
Summary:The title compound, [Zn(C6H4N5)2(H2O)4]·4H2O, was synthesized by the hydrothermal reaction of Zn(CH3COO)2·2H2O with 3-(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)pyridine. The ZnII ion is located on an inversion center and is coordinated by two pyridine N atoms from two 5-(3-pyridyl)tetrazolide ligands and four coordinated water molecules in a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. The dihedral angle between the pyridine and tetrazole rings is 9.920 (7)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked into a three-dimensional network by intermolecular O—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds involving the tetrazole group N atoms, the aqua ligands and solvent water molecules.
