Summary.
Four new polynuclear complexes: [Zn(2picNO)(N3)2] n , [Zn(4Mepym)(N3)2] n , [Cd(2picNO)(N3)2] n , and [Cd(4Mepym)(N3)2] n (2picNO = 2-picoline-N-oxide and 4Mepym = 4-methylpyrimidine) have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structures of the zinc(II) complexes feature five-coordinate zinc atoms, (μ-1,1) azido bridges, monodentate organic ligands, and 1D chains. The cadmium(II) azide complexes contain distorted octahedral metal atoms linked by alternate di-(μ-1,1) and di-(μ-1,3) azido bridges in cis arrangement and these chains are connected by 2picNO bridges giving a honeycomb 2D framework or by 4Mepym bridges forming extended 2D network structure.
