A zinc(II)-cyanide complex of cis-1,2-diaminocyclohexane (Dach) containing two dinuclear units, [Zn2(Dach)4(CN)][Zn2(CN)7]·2CH3OH (1) was prepared and characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy as well as by single crystal X-ray crystallography. Complex 1 is composed of two dinuclear ionic units, cationic [Zn2(Dach)4(CN)]3+ and anionic [Zn2(CN)7]3- and two non-coordinating molecules of methanol. The Zn atoms in [Zn2(Dach)4(CN)]3+ cation adopt a square-pyramidal environment with CN ligand occupying the apical position, while the Zn atoms in [Zn2(CN)7]3- anion exhibit a tetrahedral geometry. The dinuclear units are associated to each other through hydrogen bonding interactions to form a three dimensional network in the solid state. The presence of, a band around 2200 cm−1 in IR spectrum and a resonance at 140 ppm in 13C NMR indicated the presence of cyanide in the complex. The structures of 1 and two of its analogues, [Zn(Dach)(CN)2]4 (2) and {[Zn(Dach)2][Zn(CN)4]}2 (3) were predicted using theoretical (DFT) method. The DFT calculated values of the Gibbs free energies of the model complexes reveal that 1 is more stable than the analogous predicted complexes, 2 and 3 by 5.16 and 3.47 kcal mol−1, respectively.
