Catena-Poly[[[aqua-(pyrazine-2-carboxamide-?(2)N(1),O)zinc]-?-pyrazine-2-carboxamide-?(3)N(1),O:N(4)] dinitrate].

ABSTRACT: In the crystal of the title compound, {[Zn(C(5)H(5)N(3)O)(2)(H(2)O)](NO(3))(2)}(n), the Zn(II) cation is N,O-chelated by two pyrazine-2-carboxamide (PCA) ligands and is further coordinated by one water mol-ecule and by one pyrazine-N atom from an adjacent PCA ligand in a distorted ZnN(3)O(3) octa-hedral geometry. One of the two independent PCA ligands bridges two Zn(II) cations, forming a zigzag polymeric chain running along the c axis. In the crystal, the NO(3) (-) anions link to the chain via O-H?O and N-H?O hydrogen bonding. Weak inter-molecular C-H?O inter-actions also occur.
