Organophosphonate zincate corrosion inhibitor (CCDC 919565) contains the Zn-N bond closing three fivemembered chelate rings with the formation of a common bonding electronic subsystem of N-Zn-O-P atoms. Zinc is coordinated in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal configuration involving the oxygen atom of the neighboring molecule of the complex. Space group 1 P , Z = 2, a = 11.2208 (2) Å, b = 11.2666(3) Å, c = 12.3286(3) Å, α = 108.455(2)°, β = 97.168(2)°, γ = 117.103(2)°. The inhibitor does not form polymeric structures, provides the stability and reproducibility of technological quality parameters. The initial decomposition temperature is 250 °C.
