In the title complex, [Zn(C(5)H(9)NO(7)P(2))(2)(H(2)O)]·2H(2)O, the zinc atom is coordinated by two zoledronate anions [zoledronate = (2-(1-imidazole)-1-hydr-oxy-1,1'-ethyl-idenediphophonate)] and one water mol-ecule. The coordination number is 5. There is one half-mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit, the zinc atom being located on a twofold rotation axis passing through the metal centre and the coordinating water O atom. The anion exists as a zwitterion with an overall charge of -1; the protonated ...[more]
