Crystal structure of bis-(piperazin-1-ium-κN⁴)bis-(thio-sulfato-κS)zinc(II) dihydrate.

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, [Zn(C₄H₁₁N₂)₂(S₂O₃)₂]·2H₂O, two thio-sulfate ions coordinate to the zinc(II) atom through the terminal S atoms. The tetra-hedral coordination around the Zn^II ion is completed by ligating to two N atoms of two piperazinium ions. The remaining two N atoms of the piperazinium ions are diprotonated and do not coordinate to the metal centre. In the crystal, however, they are involved in N-H⋯O_water and N-H⋯Osulfato hydrogen bonds. Together, a series of N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, involving the O atoms of the thio-sulfate ions and the water mol-ecules as acceptors and the hydrogen atoms of the piperazinium ions and the water mol-ecules as donors, form a three-di
