X-Ray crystal structures of Mg2+ and Ca2+ dimers of the antibacterial drugnorfloxacin
Abstract
The hydrothermal reactions of ) with MgCl2·6H2O and CaCl2·6H2O yield two unprecedented dimers containing a direct coordinate bond between H-Norf and a metal [Mg2(H2O)6(H-Norf
)2]Cl4·4H2O 1 and [Ca2(Cl)(H-Norf
)6]Cl3·10H2O 2.
