Poly[[bis-(μ-3-amino-5-carb-oxy-benzoato-κ(2)N:O(1))diaqua-zinc] dihydrate]
Abstract:
The Zn(II) atom in the title polymeric compound, {[Zn(C(8)H(6)NO(4))(2)(H(2)O)(2)]·2H(2)O}(n), lies on a center of inversion and is coordinated by two amine N atoms and two carboxyl-ate O atoms from two 3-amino-5-carb-oxy-benzoate anions along with two water mol-ecules in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The bridging nature of the anion generates a layer motif parallel to (100). Hydrogen bonds of the N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O types exist in the structure. One H atom of the coordinated water mol-ecule and one H atom of the solvent water mol-ecule are each disordered over two positions in a 1:1 ratio.

Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...
