Tetraaquabis(2-methoxybenzaldehyde isonicotinoylhydrazone)zinc dinitrate

Abstract

In the title complex, [Zn(C14H13N3O2)2(H2O)4](NO3)2, the Zn atom is located on a center of symmetry. The Zn—O bond distances are 2.0816 (19) and 2.1356 (18) Å, and the Zn—N bond distance is 2.166 (2) Å. The coordination polyhedron is a slightly distorted octa­hedron. The crystal structure is stabilized by O—H(coordinated water)⋯O(NO3− or carbonyl O) and N—H(imine)⋯O(NO3−) hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.
