Crystal structure of fac-aquatricarbonyl[(S)-valinato-κ2N,O]rhenium(I)

Abstract

In the molecule of the title compound, [Re(C5H10NO2)(CO)3(H2O)], the ReI atom adopts a distorted octahedral coordination sphere defined by one aqua and three carbonyl ligands as well as one amino N and one carboxylate O atom of the chelating valinate anion. The carbonyl ligands are arranged in a fac-configuration around the ReI ion. In the crystal, an intricate hydrogen-bonding system under participation of two O—H, two N—H and one C—H donor groups and the carboxylate and carbonyl O atoms as acceptor groups contribute to the formation of a three-dimensional supramolecular network.
