Novel metal-organic 1-D сoordination polymer based on pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylate ligands: synthesis and structure investigation

► Synthesis of the novel complex [Zn(pyrazine-2,5-dicarboxylate)(DMF)2] by the direct mixing method. ► This structure features a 1-D linear polymeric chain. ► A good agreement of PXRD and EXAFS data in respect of a Zn atom local structure of in the unit cell of [Zn(pz25dc)(DMF)2].
