Zinc(II) complexes of 4-aminoantipyrine (AAP). Crystal structure of [Zn(AAP)2Cl2]

详细

Zinc(II) complexes of 4-aminoantipyrine (AAP), [Zn(AAP)₂X₂] (X = Cl^–, I^–) and [Zn(AAP)(CN)₂] · 2H₂O were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and NMR (¹H & ¹³C) spectroscopy. The crystal structure of [Zn(AAP)₂Cl₂] (1) was determined by X-ray crystallography. The structural analysis of 1 shows that the complex exists as a monomeric nonionic molecule with zinc atom bound to two AAP ligands and two chloride ions adopting a distorted tetrahedral geometry. In [Zn(AAP)₂(CN)₂] · 2H₂O, the appearance of a band at 2162 cm^–1 in IR and resonances around 142 ppm in the ¹³C NMR spectra indicated the binding of cyanide to zinc(II).
