Diacetatobis(trimethylenethiourea)zinc(II) monohydrate

In the title compound, [Zn(CH3COO)2(C4H8N2S)2]*H2O, the Zn atom is tetrahedrally coordinated in the ZnO2S2 form. N-H...O and O-H...O intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen bonds are formed by the four N atoms and the water molecule. N-H...O intermolecular hydrogen bonds and C-H...S and C-H...O intermolecular interactions interconnect columns formed by the molecules into layers. Adjacent layers are then linked by other N-H...O and O-H...O intermolecular hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional framework throughout the structure. The orientations of the acetate planes are such that the Zn atom lies within them.
