Bis(μ-N-acetyl-N-phenyl-glycinato-κO:O')bis-[dinitrato-κO,O'-bis-(1,10-phenanthroline-κN,N')lanthanum(III)].

ABSTRACT: In the title complex, [La(2)(C(10)H(10)NO(3))(2)(NO(3))(4)(C(12)H(8)N(2))(4)], each La(III) ion is ten-coordinated by four N atoms from two bidentate 1,10-phenanthroline ligands and by six O atoms, two from the N-acetyl-N-phenyl-glycinate ligands and four from two nitrate anions. Two La(III) cations, which exhibit a distorted bicapped square-anti-prismatic coordination, are bridged by two N-acetyl-N-phenyl-glycinate ligands into a dimeric structure, generated by inversion symmetry. There is a π-π contact between the benzene rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.409 (3) Å].
