In the extended structure of the title compound, [Zn2(C10H12N2O8)(H2O)], prepared under hydro­thermal conditions, there are two distinct ZnII sites. The first, with octa­hedral geometry, bonds to two N and three O atoms from one ethyl­ene­diamine­tetra­acetate tetraanion (EDTA) and one water mol­ecule. The second, with tetra­hedral geometry, coordinates to O atoms from four different EDTA ligands. The EDTA ligand almost encapsulates the octa­hedral ZnII ion and binds to four symmetry-related tetra­hedral ZnII ions, hence generating the extended structure. One noncoordinated O-atom site on the EDTA ligand connects to the water mol­ecule by hydrogen bonding. Structural comparisons are made with other compounds containing zinc, EDTA and water.

Comment top

For the hydrothermal synthesis of sparingly soluble materials, it is essential to utilize a mineralizer or coordinating agent to aid in maintaining optimum concentrations of metal ions for more controlled crystal growth (Rabenau, 1985). In this study, the ethylenediaminetetraacetate tetraanion, EDTA, has been successfully used in our efforts to improve the synthetic reproducibility and increase the size of ZnO crystals grown in subcritical hydrothermal conditions of approximately 473 K and 15 atm (1 atm = 101325 Pa) (DiLeo et al., 2004). Crystals of [Zn2(EDTA)(H2O)]n, (I), were grown in acidic conditions, unusual in this research and corresponding to a thermodynamic phase space where ZnO is less likely to precipitate. Thus, the water-insoluble title compound was discovered.

The asymmetric unit of (I), along with coordination around the distorted ZnII tetrahedron, is shown in Fig. 1, and selected bond distances and angles are included in Table 1. There are two distinct ZnII sites in this structure. Atom Zn1 connects to the EDTA tetraanion and the water molecule in a distorted octahedral environment. Atom N2, and the two acetate groups bonded to it via atoms O5 and O7, bonds to Zn1. The other N atom, N1, and one of its acetate groups connect to atom Zn1 via atom O3. The sixth bond to atom Zn1 involves atom O9 of the water molecule. The Zn—O bond distances at the octahedral atom Zn1 are in the range 2.00–2.13 Å, and the lower value corresponds to water coordination. Four of the remaining five EDTA O atoms (O1, O4ii, O6iii and O8i; see Table 1 for symmetry operations) bond in a distorted tetrahedral coordination to atom Zn2. The Zn—O bond distances at the tetrahedral atom Zn2 are in the range 1.95–2.00 Å. At the octahedral atom Zn1, the trans and cis angles are in the ranges 160.85 (6)–165.78 (6) and 77.50 (7)–110.60 (7)°, respectively, while at the tetrahedral atom Zn2, the range is 95.82 (7)–120.87 (7)°.

Fig. 2 illustrates the hydrogen bonding. Atom O2 is the only EDTA O atom that is uncoordinated to ZnII and within hydrogen-bonding distance of water atom H9C. Atom O6, which bonds to Zn2, is also within hydrogen-bonding distance of H9D, the second water H atom. Upon inspection of the displacement parameters, it is clear that U11 for O2 is roughly twice that of other atoms in the structure. Because it is the only uncoordinated EDTA O atom, it is reasonable to expect that it would have a higher range of motion.

The polyhedral arrangement along b is illustrated in Fig. 3. Both polyhedra form zigzag chains along b and c, and the tetrahedra form AB-like layers along b and c. Within the structure, there are open channels of 2–3 Å along b, approximated using ATOMS (Dowty, 2006).

Two other related compounds are [Zn3(HEDTA)2(H2O)6] (Sadikov et al., 2004) and [Zn2(EDTA)(H2O)4].2H2O (Pozhidaev et al., 1973; Escrivá et al., 1984). Both contain only octahedrally coordinated zinc. In [Zn3(HEDTA)2(H2O)6], two of the zinc sites coordinate to five O-atom sites on single HEDTA ions and one H2O molecule. The remaining O-atom site on each of these HEDTA ions coordinates to the third Zn atom, sandwiched in between the other two Zn atoms and coordinating additionally to four H2O molecules. For [Zn2(EDTA)(H2O)4].2H2O, one Zn atom is coordinated entirely by a single HEDTA ligand, and the other Zn atom by two H2O molecules and two O atoms from two distinct HEDTA ions; two solvent water molecules connect to the structure by hydrogen bonding. Similarly to the title compound, both of these related structures are extended such that some of the EDTA carboxylate groups serve to bridge ZnII ions throughout the structure.

With fewer water molecules per Zn atom (H2O:Zn ratio of 1:2, compared with 1:1 and 2:1 for the related structures), the title compound represents a denser version of other extended compounds containing zinc, EDTA and water. The previously reported trinuclear and dinuclear compounds have densities of 1.897 and 1.91 Mg m-3, respectively, whereas Zn2EDTA(H2O) has a calculated density of 2.15 Mg m-3.

Experimental top

Several samples were prepared to ensure reproducibility. Zinc chloride, ZnCl2 (approximately 0.116 g; Aldrich, 98+%), was dissolved in distilled water (10.0 g). To this mixture, disodium dihydrogen ethylenediaminetetraacetate dihydrate, Na2H2EDTA.2H2O (0.27 g; Aldrich, 99+%), was added with stirring. Finally, 1.000 M potassium hydroxide, KOH (1.2 g; Riedel-deHaën Fixanal solution), was added and the entire mixture was allowed to dissolve while stirring. After measuring a pH 3.0–3.4, the colorless solution was placed in a Parr acid-digestion vessel, with a Teflon liner capacity of 25 ml. The autoclave was closed and placed in a 473 K mechanical convection oven for 7 d. The syntheses produced between one and several crystals, ranging in size from approximately 1 to 5 mm along the longest edge. The density of the crystals was measured at ambient temperature using the technique of neutral buoyancy. The sample was placed in a known mass of bromoform (Aldrich, 99+%) and to that chloroform (Aldrich, 99.8%) was added until the crystals were suspended in the liquid mixture. The density of the bromoform–chloroform mixture was found to be 2.07 (3) Mg m-3, reasonably close to the calculated value from the X-ray structure but differing from that value by an amount that equates to approximately one water molecule. The bulk of the crystals were cloudy except near the edges, which may indicate that water disassociates from the crystal center, producing a lower bulk density compared with the transparent edges. The sample of (I) used for X-ray diffraction was taken from the transparent portion of one of the larger crystals.

Refinement top

Reflection data for two twin components were processed in SAINT-Plus (Bruker, 2003) and the lesser component was eventually omitted because of weak intensities. Flack parameter (Flack, 1983) refinement to 0.498 (9) indicated racemic twinning, as expected from the use of non-chiral reagents. In the space group assignment, centrosymmetric Pnam and noncentrosymmetric Pna21 were investigated, but Pnam did not result in an ordered structure. This result is consistent with the estimated |E*E-1| = 0.766 within XPREP (SHELXTL; Sheldrick, 2008), which suggested a noncentrosymmetric space group. The two H atoms (H9C and H9D) bonded to atom O9 were then identified. Bond distances O9—H9C and O9—H9D were restrained to 0.84 (1) Å, and the H9C···H9D separation restrained to 1.38 (1) Å. The CH2 H atoms were constrained to idealized geometry, with C—H = 0.99 Å. For all H atoms, Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(O).

Special details top

Experimental. Reflection data for two components were processed in SAINT (Bruker), with the lessor component omitted because of weak intensities. Flack parameter refinement to about 0.50 indicated racemic twinning as expected from non-chiral reagents, and this twinning was modeled with the SHELXL commands: twin 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 -1 -2 BASF 0.49780

Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
