Abstract

The crystal structures of three compounds of glycine and inorganic materials are presented and discussed. The ortho-rhombic structure of glycinesulfatodilithium(I), [Li2(SO4)-(C2H 5NO2)]n, consists of corrugated sheets of [LiO4] and [SO4] tetrahedra. The glycine molecules are located between these sheets. The main features of the monoclinic structure of diaquadichloroglycinenickel(II), [NiCl2(C2H 5NO2)(H2O)2]n, are helical chains of [NiO4Cl2] octahedra connected by glycine molecules. The orthorhombic structure of triaquagly-cinesulfatozinc(II), [Zn(SO4)(C2H5NO2)(H 2O)3]n, is made up of [O3SOZnO 5] clusters. These clusters are linked by glycine molecules into zigzag chains. All three compounds are examples of non-centrosymmetric glycine compounds.
