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) Å, β = 96.776(3)°, V = 745.03(6) Å3, 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.
