Diaqua-bis-[4-(dimethyl-amino)-benzoato-?O]bis-(nicotinamide-?N)zinc(II) dihydrate.

ABSTRACT: In the centrosymmetric title structure, [Zn(C(9)H(10)NO(2))(2)(C(6)H(6)N(2)O)(2)(H(2)O)(2)]·2H(2)O, the Zn(II) cation, located on an inversion center, is coordinated by two 4-(methyl-amino)-benzoate anions, two nicotinamide ligands and two water mol-ecules in a slightly distorted octa-hedral geometry. The dihedral angle between the carboxyl-ate group and the attached benzene ring is 3.09?(9)°, while the pyridine and benzene rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 77.10?(4)°. The uncoordinated water mol-ecule is linked to nicotinamide ligands by O-H?O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H?O, O-H?O and C-H?O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional network. A weak N-H?? inter-action also occurs.
