Abstract

Crystal and molecular structures by X-ray diffraction analysis of Co, Cu and Zn complexes of 2,2-diacetoamidopropionic acid are reported. The results show that an uncommon bond from metal ion to a carbonyl-O-of-peptide atom is formed. The structures are isomorphic (Monoclinic,P21/c, with two formula units in the cell). The metal ion lies on a center of symmetry and it is six-oxygen coordinated in an octahedral-type configuration by pairs of water molecules, carboxylic (monodentate) groups and two carbonyl-O-of-peptide atoms. Ligand molecules bridge metal ions, so that the structure consists of a two-dimensional (sheet-type) polymer. Sheets are held together by a hydrogen-bond network making efficient use of the solvent water molecules.
