Abstract

The title compound,[Zn (C9H7N3) 2 (H2O) 4](CF3O3S) 2, contains an octahedral [ZnL2 (H2O) 4] 2+ cationic complex with trans geometry (Zn site symmetry\ overline {1}), and each 5-(3-pyridyl) pyrimidine (L) ligand is coordinated in a monodentate fashion through the pyridine N atom. In the extended structure, these complexes, with both hydrogen-bond acceptor (pyrimidine) and donor (H2O) functions, are linked to each other by ...
