Tetraaqua(1,10-phenanthroline)zinc(II) 3,6-dicarboxybicyclo[2.2.2]oct-7-ene-2,5-dicarboxylate

Abstract

In the title compound, [Zn(C12H8N2)(H2O)4](C12H10O8), each ZnII atom is six-coordinated by two N atoms from one phenanthroline molecule and by four O atoms from four water molecules in a distorted octahedral environment. In the crystal structure, ions are linked by O—H...O hydrogen bonds.
