Description
Summary:In the title compound, [Zn(C14H9O4)(C12H8N2)2](C14H9O4)·H2O, the ZnII atom of the complex cation is six-coordinated in an octahedral geometry by four N atoms from two 1,10-phenanthroline ligands and two O atoms of a carboxylate group from a singly deprotonated diphenic acid. The phenanthroline and carboxylate ligands act as chelating ligands. The dihedral angles between the two benzene rings in the deprotonated diphenic acid groups are 81.05 (2) (ligand) and 89.10 (2)° (anion). O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds link the components into a three-dimensional network.
