Abstract

The crystal structure of a pseudo-tetrahedral zinc(II) complex with a 2-(2-imidazolinyl)-6-methoxy phenolate ligand was determined by X-ray crystallography. The title compound was synthesized by a reaction of ZnCl₂ and 2-(2-imidazolinyl)-6-methoxyphenolate in methanol. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c and Z= 4 with cell parameters a = 14.6485(5)Å, b = 19.2428(6)Å, c = 7.5851(3)Å, β = 104.253(4)°, V = 2072.26(13)ų. The R₁ [I > 2σ(I)] and wR₂ (all data) values are 0.0304 and 0.0833, respectively, for all 4597 independent reflections. The title compound was found to take the bis-bidentate coordination mode. Intermolecular hydrogen-bonds were formed between the complexes to form a dimeric structure. Furthermore, hydrogen-bonds were formed between the dimer and a methanal molecule of crystallization to construct one-dimensional chain networks.
