Abstract
A novel mixed-ligand complex ZnPhen(i-Pr2NCS2)(2) has been synthesized and its single crystals grown. We have determined its crystal structure from X- ray diffraction data. The structure consists of monomeric molecules, a zinc atom surrounded by two nitrogen and four sulfur atoms making a distorted o ctahedron. Various packing modes of molecules forming isolated 'dimers', ri bbons (chains), columns and layers have emerged from the study of the spati al molecule arrangement in the complexes ZnPhen(R2NCS2)(2) (R=Me, Et, i-Pr, n-Pr, i-Bu, n-Bu). The interactions between the Phen molecules have also b een studied for these complexes. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
