(2,2′-Diamino-4,4′-bi-1,3-thiazole-κ2N,N′)bis(glycinato-κ2N,O)zinc(II) dihydrate

Abstract

In the title ZnII complex, [Zn(C2H4NO2)2(C6H6N4S2)]·2H2O, the ZnII ion is coordinated by two glycinate anions and a diamino­bithia­zole (DABT) mol­ecule in a distorted octa­hedral geometry. Two thia­zole rings of the same DABT are twisted with respect to each other with a dihedral angle of 10.56 (6)°. The glycinate chelates to the ZnII ion by the amino N and carboxylate O atoms; the chelating five-membered ring displays an envelope configuration. A twofold rotation axis passes through the Zn atom and the mid-point of the C—C bond linking the two thiazole rings.
