Abstract
The title compounds, tripotassium tetrachlorozincate nitrate, K-3[ZnCl4]NO3 , and triammonium tetrachlorozincate nitrate, (NH4)(3)[ZnCl4]NO3, are newly discovered double-anion salts containing ZnCl42- and NO3- ions. The compou nds are isomorphous and contain minimally distorted anions. Hydrogen bonds to both Cl and O atoms in the ammonium compound have negligible distorting influence on anion geometries and appear only to orient the NH4+ cations.
