AI Article Synopsis
- The compound features a zinc atom coordinated in a square-pyramidal geometry, with four oxygen atoms from acetyl-acetonate ligands forming the base and a nitrogen atom from pyridine at the top.
- The crystal structure exhibits a hydrogen-bonded ribbon arrangement formed by C-H⋯O interactions, which runs parallel to a specific crystallographic direction.
- Overall, the structure highlights the unique coordination behavior of zinc in conjunction with organic ligands and their role in crystal packing.
Article Abstract
In the title compound, [Zn(C(5)H(7)O(2))(2)(C(5)H(5)N)], the metal atom has square-pyramidal coordination geometry with the basal plane defined by the four O atoms of the chelating acetyl-acetonate ligands and with the axial position occupied by the pyridine N atom. The crystal packing is characterized by a C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonded ribbon structure approximately parallel to [10[Formula: see text]].
