Abstract
Abstract Two new Zn(ii) coordination complexes [Zn(L)(dna)(H2O)] (1) and [Zn(L)(glu)]2·H2O (2) (L = 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline, H2dna = 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid, H2glu = glutaric acid) have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, fluorescence spectrum, and infrared spectroscopy. For complex 1, the dna2− anion adopts μ 1 -η 1 :η 1 chelating bidentate mode to coordinate with one Zn(ii) atom and π–π stacking interactions are formed between the L ligands. For complex 2, glu2− anions connect Zn(ii) atoms to form a wavy two-dimensional layer, and the L ligands are attached on two sides of the two-dimensional layer.
