Abstract
In the title compounds, bis[2-(3-nitrophenylnitrilomethylidyne)phenolato-N, O]zinc(II), [Zn(C13H9N2O3)(2)], and bis[2-(3-methoxyphenylnitrilomethylidyn e)phenolato-N,O]zinc(II), [Zn(C14H12NO2)(2)], the tricilinic unit cell cont ains two inversion-related molecules, In both compounds, the Zn atom is in a slightly distorted tetrahedral coordination involving O and N atoms of tw o bidentate ligands, The dihedral angle defined by the two chelate rings is 98.09(4)degrees for the methoxyphenyl complex and 98.05(7)degrees for the nitrophenyl complex. The molecules are crosslinked via intermolecular hydro gen bonds.
