Hypothesis
The study investigates the synthesis and structure of triethylammonium tetrachlorido(pyrazine-2-carboxylato)stannate(IV).
Conclusion
The new compound exhibits a cis-SnCl4NO octahedral geometry with specific hydrogen bonding interactions.
Supporting Evidence
- The SnIV atom is chelated by a pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligand.
- The compound forms an N—H⋯N hydrogen bond.
- The structure was determined using X-ray crystallography.
Takeaway
Scientists made a new chemical compound using pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid, and they found out how its atoms are arranged.
Methodology
The compound was synthesized by reacting triethylammonium pyrazine-2-carboxylate with stannic chloride in dry methanol under nitrogen atmosphere.
