The crystal structure of the title compound, {[Zn(C(6)H(3)N(2)O(4))(H(2)O)(2)]NO(3)}(n), is built of zigzag cationic chains propagating in [010] with nitrate anions located in the space between the chains. The Zn(II) ion is coordinated by N and O atoms of two symmetry-related ligands in equatorial sites, and by two water O atoms at the axial sites of a distorted octa-hedron. One carboxyl-ate group of the ligand remains protonated, serving as a donor in a short intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond ...[more]
