Abstract The synthesis and the crystal and molecular structures of three metal(II) derivatives of lutidinic acid are presented (lutidinic acid = 2,4-pyridinedicarboxylic acid = H2 2,4-pydc). Zn(2,4-pydc)(H2O)4]·H2O crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c; with a = 7.764(3), b = 6.546(3), c = 22.021(8) A °; beta = 91.45(4)º; and Z = 4. Na2[Zn(2,4-pydc)2(H2-O)2]·8H2O crystallizes in P21/a; with a = 7.070(2), b = 13.630(2), c = 12.520(1) A ° ; b = 91.66(1)8; and Z = 2. [Ni(H2O)6][Ni(2,4-pydc)2(H2O)2] crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1; with a = 5.200(7), b = 7.890(3), c = 13.872(5) A °; alpha = 84.96(3), beta = 85.64(2)8, gamma = 73.21(4); and Z = 2. The Zn and Ni ions are hexacoordinated and the lutidinate group is almost planar binding the metal through an oxygen atom from the 2-carboxylate group. All compounds present a dangling uncoordinated 4-carboxylate group. The stereochemistry of the title compounds is compared with other metal (II) pyridinedicarboxylates. .
