  • Abstract
    Two novel mixed-ligand zinc(II) complex compounds [Zn(cinn)2(mpcm)]n (1) and [Zn(p-HO-cinn)2(nia)(H2O)2] · H2O (2) (cinn = cinnamato, mpcm = methyl-3-pyridylcarbamate, nia = nicotinamide) were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffraction and thermal analysis. Diverse modes of carboxylate coordination were found in the complexes. In 1 the cinnamate ligands coordinate as monodentate and bridging (syn–anti), respectively. The syn–anti carboxylate bridges connect the molecules of 1 to infinite polymeric helical chains. The structure of 2 is monomeric. One of the carboxylate oxygens of p-hydroxycinnamate is semi-coordinated (Zn–O = 2.549(2) Å).
