Summary: | In the title compound, [Zn(NO3)2(C20H18N4)]n, the ZnII atom lies on a crystallographic twofold axis and the coordination geometry can be considered as a slightly distorted tetrahedron defined by two O atoms from two nitrate groups and two N atoms from two ligand molecules. A distorted octahedron may be assumed when two of the symmetry-related nitrate O atoms, with Zn—O distances of 2.528 (2) Å, are added to the coordination environment. Another twofold axis, passing through the middle of the biphenyl bonds, is observed in the crystal structure. A chain along [101] is built up by the ligands linking the ZnII ions. |
