The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Zn(C12H11N2O4)2(H2O)4]·4H2O, contains one-half of the complex molecule and two uncoordinated water molecules. The four water O atoms in the equatorial plane around the ZnII centre ( symmetry) form a distorted square-planar arrangement, while the distorted octahedral coordination geometry is completed by the O atoms of the zwitterionic 2-methylbenzimidazolium-1,3-diacetate ligands in the axial positions. The benzimidazole ring system is planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.041 (3) Å. Intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonding results in the formation of a non-planar six-membered ring. In the crystal structure, strong intra- and intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a three-dimensional network. π–π contacts between benzimidazole rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.899 (1) Å] may further stabilize the structure.
The asymmetric unit of the title complex, [Pd2(NO3)4(C58H52N2P4)], contains one half-molecule, in which the central benzene ring is located on a crystallographic centre of inversion. The Pd atom has a distorted square-planar coordination consisting of two P and two O atoms. In the crystal structure, intermolecular C—H⋯O interactions link the molecules into chains, and π–π contacts between the phenyl rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.928 (3) Å] may further stabilize the structure.
In the title mononuclear complex, [Ag(C18H18N2P)(NO3)2], the metal centre is coordinated in a slightly distorted trigonal–planar geometry by the P atom of the phosphine ligand and the O atoms of the two monodentate nitrate anions. In the crystal structure, complex molecules are connected by intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains running parallel to the b axis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
