As a part of my master thesis [Zn(I3P)2] and [Zn(I3O)2] were initially synthesized from ZnCl2 and the corresponding acid (indole-3-propanoic and indole-3-acetic acid). Those two compounds were used as starting compounds in syntheses with various neutral nitrogen ligands. Syntheses were performed in two mass ratios between the initial zinc compound and the ligand (1:1 and 1:2), using different solvents (methanol, ethanol, chloroform, water, acetone, dimethylformamide) in different combinations. The resulting products were characterized by analyzing the results of some methods (X-ray powder analysis (PXRD), single crystal X-ray analysis (XRD), nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR). IR spectra, UV-Vis and luminescence spectra of the products were recorded in the solid state. Following formulas of the obtained compounds were predicted: [Zn(I3P)2(2,2'-bipy)] (2,2'-bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine), [Zn(I3O)2(4,4'-bipy)], [Zn(I3P)2(4,4'-bipy)] (4,4'-bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine), [Zn(I3O)2(4-ampy)2]∙H2O (4 ampy = 4-aminopyridine), [Zn(I3P)2(bipyam)] (bipyam = 2,2'-dipyridylamine), [Zn(I3P)2(phen)] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), [Zn(I3P)2(neo)], [Zn(I3O)2(neo)] (neo = neocuproine).
