catena-Poly[[bis(1,3-propylenediamine)zinc(II)]-μ-naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylato-κ2O2:O6]

Abstract

The title compound, [Zn(C12H6O4)(C3H10N2)(2)](n), has been prepared from zinc(II), naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (H(2)napdc) and 1,3-propylenediamine (pren). The Zn atom lies on a crystallographic centre of symmetry and is coordinated by two monodentate naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylate ligands and two chelating 1,3-propylenediamine ligands in a distorted octahedral environment. The naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylate ligands link the Zn atoms, forming a one-dimensional chain structure.
