Abstract The compounds [Zn-II{C6H4(NH2)(2)}(2)(NO3)(2)], (1) and [Cd-II{C6H4(NH2)(2)}(2)(NO3)(2)] (2) have been prepared (C6H4(NH2)(2) = orthophenylenediammine = opda) and characterized by routine spectroscopic methods and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Compound 1 crystallizes in orthorhombic space group Pcab, where as compound 2 crystallizes in monoclinic space P2(1)/n. In the crystal structure of 1 an extended hydrogen bonding network is formed involving zinc coordinated amines and nitrato ligands. The compound 2 consists of molecules in which the cadmium ion is eight coordinated, with. two bidentate nitrate groups and two bidentate opda ligands. The geometry around the cadmium described as a distorted dodecahedron. The crystal structure of 2 shows an intricate hydrogen bonding network, formed by amine and nitro groups coordinated to cadmium.
